Still working here as well. Rumour is, reddit has given them some leeway period to make necessary changes to their code. If you ask me, I’m glad to be out of that dumpster fire. Lemmy is great as far as initial impressions go.

Thanks, I’ll be sure to check it out!
Oh, thank you so much! I’ve been searching for something like this for a while!
Agreed. Although I’m pleased to see them survive through this, I really hoped they’d make a Lemmy client. As a platform, this just makes more sense.
Here are some apps I’ve switched to
AntennaPod - For podcasts, pretty much the best app out there
Simple calender - For calender use
Feeder - RSS feed reader. Useful replacement for news apps
Simple Gallery Pro - As the name suggests, it’s a clean, simple offline photo and video viewer with some neat features
Lawnchair - My launcher of choice. A good balance of speed and customisability.
Just notes - Keep replacement
K9 mail - Gmail app replacement. FairEmail is a strong contender too.
Keepass2Android - Password manager
Neostore - F-droid alternative
Geometric Weather - My preferred weather app of choice (Edit - For a more updated fork of this, check comment below)
Wefwef - Kinda mimics apollo for lemmy. It’s pretty neat imo.
Honourary mention - Infinity for reddit (RIP)
- YouTube
- AntennaPod
Honorary foss mentions: Lawnchair, Simple Gallery Pro, feeder rss reader.
Haha, funny and sad at the same time. Apart from addiction though, the sentiment to support the developer who had worked so hard to bring to app to them might be at play too. I know many users who are willing to either donate to the Infinity dev directly and patch the apk for themselves, or pay the subscription cost only if it has a profit margin for the dev. Nobody wants to pay reddit.
