When Reddit killed Alien Blue, I downloaded Apollo on a whim. It has since become what I believe to be a sterling example of what an iOS app could and should be, in terms of UI/UX, and has been justifiably showcased by Apple themselves.

It’s sad to witness its death, but I’m incredibly thankful to Apollo’s dev, Christian Selig, for the work that he put into an app that I used for literally hundreds of hours.

I hope Lemmy can prove to be a viable alternative to Reddit. I’ve been enjoying it so far. Using it is reminding me of the earlier days of Reddit when it was seen as the “nerdy website with the ugly interface”.

    I’ve had a great experience with Jebora! It feels very similar to RIF. It’s still growing, but supports a lot of the display settings I like as well as multiple accounts. All around a relatively easy transition.

      I’m thinking of busting out my Google Nexus 6 just to try out Jerboa. Mlem is great so far, very appolo-like, and it’s obvious they took inspiration from that app, but, it’s still in BETA and features are very limited.

      I agree. Jerboa is pleasantly functional.
