Your templates get more exotic every day

[–] Sunshine@piefed.social 2 points 14 hours ago

One’s gotta be creative 😉

Fuck spez, Apollo was legendary, the api purge was when I quit Reddit.

Same, though I was a connect user. To think they could have made everyone way less angry if they just had an app that isn't dogshit 😅

[–] CocaineShrimp@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It was comical how hard they shit the bed

Lets kill all 3rd party apps that address the issues in our app... without fixing those issues

Genius

Woaahhhh, who could have done this???? Why is there a bullet hole in my foot???

He says, gun in hand.

I miss RiF. The jerboa app is a godsend for me on here and I will never go back to Reddit ever again...

[–] Grandwolf319@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That’s impossible, one of the core features of Apollo was that it was lightweight, no ads. Public for profit companies are unable to do that.

[–] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

I mean even ignoring ads, the ui for the official reddit app is an abject dumpster fire, and lacks core functionality like moderation tools

As much as I loath advertising, the ads really weren't the biggest issue with the official app 😅. The nonsensical tangled-web-of-spaghetti layout, dogshit ux, and inability to provide core functionality needed by some of its most vital users were

This dude sucks at 🧱

Y'all should check out Voyager for Lemmy. Very close look and feel.

[–] becausechemistry@lemy.lol 16 points 2 days ago

That’s what I’m using! It’s great. Definitely has that Apollo feel.

[–] SatyrSack@quokk.au 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The beta also supports PieFed

[–] maam@feddit.uk 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Piefed support works on stable.

[–] LucidNightmare@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I just tried and it didn’t work. iOS here. :/

[–] Ludicrous0251@piefed.zip 3 points 1 day ago

Can't speak for iOS, but hello from Voyager stable on Android & piefed.zip!

[–] ApathyTree@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It’s still in testing on iOS, I believe (I’m on the test version, and have a piefed account I use it with)

It’s still needing work, though, like if you refresh your feed it forgets viewed and hidden posts, makes everything show as new again. It works, but not super well.

Thank you for sharing! I can’t wait to see how it works when it’s fully released! Cheers!

I keep meaning to switch to Voyager from Sync, but I'm lazy and bad with change

[–] pulsewidth@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago

I've enjoyed being on Lemmy and almost never thinking about that jailbait-lovin, greedy, piece of shit billionaire.

[–] Sunshine@piefed.social 40 points 2 days ago

By building I mean by reporting bugs, donating and supporting the developers.

[–] Krill@feddit.uk 18 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I miss Baconreader, another refugee from the API purge here

[–] Sunshine@piefed.social 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Any features in particular you still miss?

[–] Krill@feddit.uk 3 points 1 day ago

It's been that long I can't even remember what it did

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 22 points 2 days ago (1 children)

For sure great app. He did get weirdly snippy about Voyager looking exactly like Apollo, but he was hurt at the time I suppose.

[–] Sunshine@piefed.social 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Do you have evidence for this claim?

[–] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Here's a few jabs he took at Voyager that I could find:

Not sure if there were more before too but the comments are kinda sad and bitter.... But he seemed great in every other regard 🤷

[–] Sunshine@piefed.social 7 points 2 days ago

Thanks for sharing!
