Well... Not anymore I don't
Yeah, seems like this poll is missing an important “I did before leaving Reddit” option.

I mean, kind of...
I use Sync and still have it installed, but now it just aggravates me when I open it. Not because of Sync, but because Reddit is just... bleh.
Maybe I'll uninstall it later, but I'm tired and lazy. Not like I have a longtime account to delete since I coincidentally did that over a month ago for other reasons.
Do need to delete the one a I made a few weeks ago for NSFW shit. I'm sure Reddit will really miss having that 3 karma account.
Define "currently"... I still have rif on my phone but I haven't used Reddit in a week

I use Infinity and have found it to be absolutely excellent. I wish I could continue to use it rather than leave altogether.
I am also a long time infinity user, Jerboa feels fairly similar to me.

Sync IS Reddit to me since I haven't used my desktop for primary browsing of the site in years. It's a shame Reddit is disappearing shortly.
Yeah, after I started using Sync and they did the redesign, desktop browsing felt so slow. Even old.reddit felt clunky compared to Sync.
I've used RIF for nearly 10 years. I can't stand the current state of the official app. It spends far too much time harassing you with useless notifications/info/recommendations for my taste and it's a laggy mess.
Sync for reddit pro for years, now using a browser for kbin.social.
I've been using Relay for maybe 10 years? It's a bit of an underdog and doesn't get spoken about a lot, but over the years I've tried a bunch of Reddit apps and Relay is the one I liked the most.
It used to be called "Reddit News" until Reddit cracked down on apps using "Reddit" in their name. Their rules changed to only allow "for Reddit" at the end of the name, so Reddit News became "Relay for Reddit", rif (Reddit is Fun) became "rif is fun for Reddit", etc.
I'm the same. Relay is so slick and I'm gutted about what is happening. Even if the dev manages to keep Relay going, I don't want to support a company like Reddit who seem happy to shit all over their userbase in pursuit of profit.

I use(d) Infinity
Use Apollo and now only open/upvote posts and polls about the resistance.
This will be an insanely biased poll
I've been using boost for a little over a year. I have not be on since the blackout started.

Apollo was great while it lasted
Boost is still my favorite. I'm done after the third party apps are gone. Going to block Reddit in my router to stop me on desktop haha.
infinity
Sync all the way
Currently? No I deleted my accounts, when I still had them though I used infinity
Relay. The official app can go fuck itself.
I used too. Paid for Apollo until Christian started spamming ads for ultra and went back on his word that subscriptions were only to cover ongoing costs like servers for notifications.
So I went to ReddPlanet. Who’s also shutting down.
I haven’t been on Reddit in about a week though. I’m not too keen on the lemmy devs stances politically and will probably move to kbin when the documentation and setup gets fleshed out better.
RiF for several years!
Before all this kerfluffle with the API, I have used Reddit is Fun for mobile for several years. I will be really bummed to see it go.
Boost for Reddit is awesome!
Even if by some miracle the 3rd party apps survive, too late.
Fuck Spez... I'm out. (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
Was a big fan of RedReader.
Rif. Working on understanding this ui
Currently? No, because I quit reddit.
But when I was on reddit, I used Relay For Reddit Pro.

When I was using Reddit, I used RIF.
I used Baconreader, Relay, and in 2014 got Sync pro and have used that ever since.
I stopped using reddit for the blackout and have been trying Jerboa and /kbin since then.

RiF since I found Reddit so many years ago. I've tried others but they never stuck.

I've used both RiF and Sync, and between the two of them I'd probably say Sync was my favorite. I hope both of the devs land on their feet, they produced amazing apps.
I used apollo, but I've not been on it since the protests started. Not going back to Reddit either now
Infinity, FOSS and on FDroid
Reddit is Fun for around 10 years, Bacon Reader for around 2 years before that. I have quit Reddit since last week and don't intend to ever go again outside of the random Google search result.
Didn't even know what a 3rd party app was until the protests (never used reddit on my phone to limit the amount of time spent there, and was never very tech savvy).
Left because of other reasons, like a couple mods of communities I love packing up and leaving and the sheer principle of it all.

When I was using reddit, I used Boost.
I used Sync up until last week.
Won't be back.
I wouldn't say currently because I deleted it after moving to Kbin, but I was using RIF for as long as it existed and was a daily Reddit user for over 12 years. I've been happy using Kbin though this past week and have quickly seen subreddits migrating over and a lot more activity just in the past few days.
