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".
10 year reddit user and day 1 Pro/Ultra Apollo user. Lifetime ultra was the best value for money I've ever spent, seriously. I tipped Christian £10 as a final thanks and... that's basically it. I did the same, mlem now stands where Apollo did.
Also, mlem does a decent job at not feeling too foreign compared to Apollo. Sure, the content of Lemmy isn't close to reddit, and apollo really was/is king, but I browsed /r/all on reddit and browsing /c/all on mlem isn't all that bad
