I was an avid Apollo user right up until the API shutdown. I was hoping that the protest shutdowns would change anything, and I stopped using reddit for a while. (My own little shut down protest I guess). But now, it seems to me that all my favorite subreddits are back up again. Noone is talking about u/Spez (apart from r/dankmemes and r/holdup) and Noone is shutting down their subreddits.

What happened to all the backlash reddit was facing? Can we stage another shutdown?

Until that happens, as the title says, I've downloaded the official garbage app, and I'm browsing reddit on that for the time being. A little less dopamine, a little less useful, a little less fun, a whole lot more spam, ads, and uninteresting shit popping up in my feed..
