Apollo will close down on June 30th. Reddit’s recent decisions and actions have unfortunately made it impossible for Apollo to continue. Thank you so, so much for all the support over the years. ❤️ https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/144f6xm/apollo_will_close_down_on_june_30th_reddits/

amitburst,

@christianselig I’m so sorry, man!

osc,

@christianselig Thanks for all the work you did over the year, and for providing the receipts

As a content creator, I’m looking for a new home now that Twitter is dying

I now know that it won’t be Reddit. They have the same disregard for their ecosystem as Twitter has. I will invest my time and my efforts elsewhere.

@christianselig thank you so much for one very fine iPhone app. To many more indie things!

N0cturno,

@christianselig Thank you for all the years and hard work and good luck with your future projects, I have tried over 10+ Reddit third party apps and Apollo was probably among the best, if not the best, just joy to use.

@christianselig I know you've heard this a thousand times, but I need you to have heard it from me, too:

Thanks for everything! For me, Apollo is Reddit. Best wishes for your next chapter!

@christianselig what a bunch of weird losers. I hope they get slaughtered at the ipo.

@christianselig Everything about Redditt sucks bottom mud.

nashp,

@christianselig appreciate everything you’ve done over the years. Never crossed my mind that I wouldn’t have Apollo. That’s the best compliment I can give it.

chryizz,

@christianselig sad to read. was one of my essential apps. always struggled with reddit's web & app ui.

BSutich,

@christianselig Been reading all the posts about this, and it makes me so angry. I hope Reddit walks back these incredibly expensive API charges. Today's AMA should be pretty wild. Even if they do change their ways, still hard to trust them as a company.

I'm excited to see what you do next Christian. Thanks for making such a delightful app to use.

tariqi,

@christianselig 💔 thanks for the fantastic app, looking forward to seeing what you do next.

MrDigital,

@christianselig This makes me sad as Apollo makes Reddit usable. I look forward to whatever your next project is.

asp821,

@christianselig any chance you’ll build a mastodon app? Just switched over here after the Reddit shit show and it’s a bit confusing at first to say the least. I think you’d do a really nice job creating an intuitive app.

I’d be happy to help with any marketing or graphic design work needed to make it happen.

tkrombac,

@christianselig Reddit AMA is tomorrow. I'm very curious how they will react. If they want to become EBIDTA positive, they need to at least cover costs. Not sure they can reduce 3d party app costs by much...
Interesting times.

@christianselig I’m so sorry to hear this Christian ❤️

aantoj,

@christianselig man I remember using your app when I used my friend's IPhone and damn was it not leaps and bounds above the official one.

jadag88,

@christianselig I only just discovered the Apollo app. I was so frustrated with the Reddit app, and then I heard about Apollo and saw it highlighted at the WWDC, so I downloaded it. Although I hardly knew ye, I will miss ye. Best of luck with your other endeavors. Maybe consider making an awesome app for Mastodon?

Retr0mantic,

@christianselig @flargh Please support Lemmy and kbin instead!

ZeroEntr0py,

@christianselig incredibly appreciative of your efforts. Can't tell you the amount of time I've spent in your app. You helped make the internet a better place. 🖤

Fuck reddit and their greed.

kloptops,

@christianselig just deleted my reddit account after a little over 10 years, I don’t want to keep using the platform with the way things are going. Thanks for making the best Reddit app. ❤️

jerry,

@christianselig I just wanted to say thank you for all that you did to make Apollo a truly amazing application.

I've been a happy Ultra subscriber a long time and while I'd happily have paid what you needed to keep running, it totally understand and respect your moral and emotional reasons for just shuttering things.

I'll be sad to see it go, but I wish you all the best <3

@christianselig gonna miss Apollo 😞

SmoothestDC,

@christianselig This is what capitalism's sociopathic profit motive results in, always.
