Apollo was the shit and it was the only way to browse that site for me. Havnt gone back since June 30th. Just discovered this whole fediverse thing today. Loving it. (I’m 50. It’s amazing I even managed to find this place)
You’ve probably heard this mentioned loads, but if you like Apollo, visit wefwef.app. Wefwef is an alternate Lemmy UI that is essentially an Apollo clone for Lemmy.
Thanks for the tip… Had not heard of wefwef. Just submitted application.
I also didn’t know about that, because I simply used Reddit since then and had not made a deep dive into Lemmy yet. Thanks a lot!
it sucks the way things went down. thanks for all the hardwork on the app. i was a rif user to be honest but still i appreciate the work that went into the app.
If I forgot to sign out of RiF before uninstalling is that an issue for the developer?
No, TalkLittle (the RIF dev) revoked his API key already, so you can’t even do anything logged in, anyway. Right now the app is falling back to a scraping method to get the front page data, but it won’t let you log in or interact with anything right now. It’s basically in read-only mode now.
It shouldn’t be. AFAIK most of the devs who are closing their apps will have deleted their API keys on the Reddit Dev platform.
Thank you!
I deleted my account before uninstalling RiF 😂
