    When this saga began, I didn’t think I’d be struggling with such a sense of disconnect with the loss of an app of all things. However, I do feel that Christian’s eulogy for Apollo helped, a gentle reminder to “smile because it happened”. Here’s to moving on.

    I haven’t processed what it means yet. I’m still at the first stage of grief.

    So at the moment my “workflow” is to completely stop accessing Reddit via mobile apps. I’ll still use Reddit via Google Searches because it remains important for finding key information.

    I’m content playing with Lemmy as my main mobile “app”.

      There’s so much community knowledge on reddit, it’s kinda painful to see everyone deleting all their historical comments and posts.

      I get it, but still that’s information presumably lost forever.

    Someone on Reddit said “years of muscle memory gone,” which hit me hard. Apollo was Reddit for me for years, so depressing watching this play out.
