It’s graphically very pretty, at least, and I’m gonna miss the place.

    As a RiF user for many years, I was completely insulated from the award bloat. Every time I see a screenshot of the official app, it seems so ridiculous.

      For me RiF is the GOAT reddit client, its simple, fast, battery friendly. Hope RiF devs make client for Lemmy

      Same. All awards would be ignored except for the gild symbols. All these other awards would fly past me.

      As it should be.

        Some of them were given for free if you used the official app. I briefly used the official app before I found out about Apollo, and it gave me a Wholesome award to give.

        I ended up giving it to dragon porn.

      If I recall, Apollo supported viewing awards but not giving them, and the option to view awards could also be disabled.

        You could give awards with Apollo. I came to Apollo from Sync on Android, which could not be used to give awards. It was something I really appreciated, because I felt coins/awards from third party apps might help Reddit continue to let 3rd party apps live.

        We all saw how that turned out though.
