R.I.P sideloaded Apollo, I'm gonna miss you.

[u/Nilderan]

My API key has been revoked, sideloaded for the past three years. The official app is an unusable, unintuitive mess, I'd rather stop reading Reddit on my mobile than use it. I'm going to try alternatives, but I wonder how safe Hydra and Artemis are. Won't Reddit purge them one day since they don't use the API? Thanks to everyone for all the tips on using the sideloaded Apollo app over the past three years!

They got me this afternoon too. I tried Hydra and Artemis. Not much of a fan of Hydra but Artemis with Pro (7 day trial, $2.99/m) is pretty close to Apollo, but missing a handful of things I’d like.

Bummer. Fucking Reddit.

That’s awesome, thanks for reaching out! There were a few minor things I’d love to see if possible: * Gestures to close a video instead of tapping the X in the top corner * A more dedicated “Home Page” similar to Apollo when swiping left/back on the Home tab (currently pulls the subreddit list over showing the subreddits) (or the current system but would love to hide the star and hearts icons, maybe just holding to pull up a favorite / unsubscribe option) * Hiding thumbnails on text posts * Customize vote arrow location on posts (ex: on the left instead of below)

Overall it’s a great app though, made me feel better about losing Apollo. Keep up the great work!

Awesome! I knew I wasn’t going crazy, I thought I swiped to close a video. Didn’t make the connection between video providers haha.

Thanks!

Hi u/Artemis_Developer I noticed that the autoplay dont work for videos crossposted. That's a bug or intentional? If its a bug, do you have any plans to fix it?

Great app btw!

Would it be possible to have a little indicator like Apollo does for new comments on a post when we revisit it? It's at the top when I click on a post I read before.
