Updated the app for the last time and now it opens and immediately closes :(
Christian your app will be sorely missed. Deleting my account tonight and going all in on lemmy. It’s been a great run!

Christian your app will be sorely missed. Deleting my account tonight and going all in on lemmy. It’s been a great run!
I'm not ashamed to admit that this is a significant moment in my life. It's the end of an era. It has had significant impacts on my habits.
Yep. For years I’d scroll Reddit during my off-time. Sitting on the bus or in the train, when taking a short break from work.
There was always something interesting to read, and now it’s ruined.
I hope Lemmy picks up but it takes years to build up such a large userbase.
Couldn’t have said it better……
Agreed. It might sound dumb but I am experiencing a sort of grief right now
It’s over
I’m also finding this.
RIP Apollo
Same. Come on Lempollo.
Yes, 1000 times yes
The same thing is happening to me!
Similar thing happened to Reddit sync, I get error 429 (too many requests). It's time to move over permanently to lemmy!

I could not imagine to have this feeling about losing an app, truly sad. But we build something new here!
Yes. What we have got here is pretty sweet
Yes RIP
Yep it’s done
It will forever have its own page
Same here /: unfortunately I didn’t get to download the wallpapers before it died which is kinda a bummer, but as a 12+ year Reddit user I’m still glad to have supported Christian one last time.
At least for me I can still open the app and go to settings where the option for the wallpapers is
Looks like Christian manually revoked his token so the app opens now
Wow, I saw this moment coming but couldn’t comprehend, that it’s really going to be over. And now the app ist just gone.
Thank you Christian!
RIP
HI EVERYONE!
Why hello there!
General Kenobi!
For everyone missing Apollo, give wefwef a go! It feels just like Apollo but for Lemmy!

Memmy is also a great Apollo-like app for iOS. They say they’re hoping to launch it in the App Store today, but if you can’t wait here’s the TestFlight link: https://testflight.apple.com/join/6jaRU6rD
Sounds like some tokens broke when Reddit pulled the plug. Still no access to content, but Christian has fixed the app itself in case anyone still wants to tip, refuse a refund, get the wallpapers, or download their data.

Me too, just now noticed after reading this.
Damn.
What a bummer.
I haven’t updated but it still crashes. Doesn’t crash if you open it with airplane mode on though. Still even if you get it open it’s dead. ;(

RIP was on Reddit for over 10 years and Apollo was a big reason why. Sad to see what it’s become now but excited for Lemmy to take off
I comment

RIP Apollo. Thanks for making such a wonderful app
Wow that’s really sad. It’s already gone 😞
I've been going into rif occasionally throughout the day expecting it to happen but also hoping it wouldn't. It's weird to care so much, but I do. I've had reddit for so many years, always there, so cuddly and comforting, when I just want to doom scroll through randomness.
I'm excited to try something new but also really nervous to break my reddit habit. Hi friends. I can't wait to see how we grow and develop this new chapter together!
This sucks. Long term it may be a blessing that I get off Reddit, but man, feels bad. So many memories.
Sad to see Apollo go after using it for years.
Same :(
Thanks for everything 🫶🏼👏🏼
All my comments are deleted as well as my account. RIP Apollo and fuck off, Reddit.

Consider not getting a pro-rated refund from Christian if you see fit. If you got value out of the app, it's one last hurrah for Christian.
Was a lifetime subscriber and the thought never crossed my mind. The experience was that good
Honestly wefwef feels a lot like Apollo and is making the transition a lot more bearable
