How many of you use a 3rd-party app to browse Reddit?
Well… Not anymore I don’t

Same. Used both RIF and Apollo through the years. Haven’t used anything for a week now.
I had grown quite fond of the app Infinity over the past years. I uninstalled it last Sunday. I’ve also deleted all my Reddit content yesterday. Honestly I had thought it would be more painful to see all that go down the drain. But after a week away from Reddit I didn’t even care about any of it anymore.
Honestly I just picked up reading books and it’s so nice
I’m reading a lot more too.
I use Infinity since its open source
Also available on fdroid (until July 1st, of course)

RiF for 10 years.
Same, until they announced it’d be shutting off at the end of the month. Damn shame, but oh well, it beats sticking around waiting for the end.
I’ve always used RiF - it duplicates the desktop layout better than the others, along with so many other features. Wish its developer was moving on to a Lemmy app, but he’s cranking out one for Tildes instead.
I still use it to lurk - the shitstorm over there is quite amusing, read the latest announcement at r/videos. Yes, nothing but John Oliver videos - but the screed this is delivered with is a thing of beauty.
This will be an insanely biased poll
Define “currently”… I still have rif on my phone but I haven’t used Reddit in a week
Yeah, “currently” is the wrong adverb to use. Relay and Boost were common apps I used and pretty much the only means I used to access Reddit. I only touched the desktop web app when I got a web search link.
When I was using reddit, I used Boost.
Same here. I might go back to Reddit for two subreddits that I can’t get elsewhere, but for all the other subreddits I used to frequent, I’ll be sticking with Lemmy via Jerboa.
RiF since I found Reddit so many years ago. I’ve tried others but they never stuck.
I desperately want a RiF clone for interacting with Lemmy. If RiF does actually shut down at the end of the month, I really hope talklittle open-sources it.
I’ve been a RiF diehard for about a decade, but I’ll definitely give Sync for Lemmy a try when it’s available.
What I’m really interested in is this. If this gets completed, theoretically any existing third-party reddit app could update the API URL it hits and their app would pretty much “just work” with Lemmy, they’d just need to add an option for the user to input their home instance’s URL and their credentials. It was started by @derivator
I use Infinity and have found it to be absolutely excellent. I wish I could continue to use it rather than leave altogether.
I am also a long time infinity user, Jerboa feels fairly similar to me.
Using that too now. Could do with collapsing threads and skipping to next / previous top level comment and I’d be a little happier. But otherwise quite pleased.
What do you mean by collapsing threads? Currently if you clicked on a comment, it should collapse said comment and any children of the comment.
With regards to navigating to the next/previous top level comment, worth putting that as an “issue” on Jerboa’s GitHub as a feature request if one doesn’t exist for this feature already.
Haha, you’re right. I was trying to long press the comment to collapse it. I didn’t think of short tapping it!
Turns out there’s already an open issue on the prev/next buttons: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/542

I used apollo, but I’ve not been on it since the protests started. Not going back to Reddit either now
Boost is still my favorite. I’m done after the third party apps are gone. Going to block Reddit in my router to stop me on desktop haha.
When I was using Reddit, I used RIF.
Use Apollo and now only open/upvote posts and polls about the resistance.
I’ve used RIF for nearly 10 years. I can’t stand the current state of the official app. It spends far too much time harassing you with useless notifications/info/recommendations for my taste and it’s a laggy mess.
Currently? No, because I quit reddit.
But when I was on reddit, I used Relay For Reddit Pro.
I had the same thought
