Apollo on iOS Sync on Android
Started with Boost, then switched to Infinity because Boost Pro wasn't compatible with CalyxOS.
Apollo.
Joey, and Boost up until a few years ago.
I started out with BaconReader, then I moved over to Sync, then when Sync development slowed down I moved over to Infinity
Sync, then something (I don't remember what) pushed my to Joey)
I use Dawn. It still works!
Tell me more. Does it have mod capability? Does it run on Android?
No mod capability, or at least not that I'm aware of. But it does run on Android! https://f-droid.org/packages/me.thanel.dank/
Boost for Reddit and the Sync for Reddit, good news is that both apps are coming for Lemmy.
I was using Narwhal, which may or may not have survived. I had been under the assumption it was going away, but June 30 I stopped by the subreddit and apparently the developer was working with Reddit to move to a subscription model or something. Even though my 3rd party app has apparently survived, I walked away and deleted all my comments/accounts.
Infinity and before that relay
AlienBlue and then Slide. I tried Apollo but didnโt like it. Official one was trash.
I was using Relay, but switched to Sync like a month before they killed API
Antenna despite the developers lack of continued interest as well as Apollo.
I used the official client, i wasn't aware of the fact that there were other
Brave browser on all my devices like a noob... Fuck apps in general
Narwhal
Compact mobile site. Mostly dead now, but you can have it sort of work by appending .i to old.reddit.com URLs.
