When Apollo stops working, I will only be accessing Reddit via old.reddit.com

I refuse to use that shitshow of an ad riddled official app.

Stop accessing at all. You're still giving them traffic.

You should access Reddit only via a mirror as you wouldn’t want to contribute there anyway.

You should use Teddit, I'm using it as a mirror to wrangle in RSS feeds of sub's. That way Reddit doesn't get your traffic directly
