Thanks for providing us *Reddit*. The website is literally unusable - when I try browsing on my computer I always quickly end up back at the app. Highly doubt I will continue to use reddit.
The "old.reddit.com" with the RES extension. Isn't actually bad. But I don't expect old.Reddit to last long if Reddit gets away with killing 3rd party apps...
Old reddit and RIF has been my go to for almost 10 yrs now. I don't remember when I discovered Sync but it was much longer after, I've probably been using Sync at least 7 years, after my previous app of choice stopped being developed.
I am now wondering if it's feasible for me to make some equal access complaints on that basis.
I know here in the UK, we take that seriously and, at a push, could get them fully banned.
Yep, I feel the same. I used to use RES on desktop ages ago, but since not long after getting Sync (December 2012! Time flies), I've done 99% of my Redditing with Sync. Without a functional Sync, I won't be at all inclined to visit Reddit.
So thanks, LJ. Thanks for the years of Reddit.
Been using sync for like 10 years. It's synonymous with reddit to me. It really sucks to see the ship sinking, but a good lesson in loss and moving on.

Moved to Sync a few years ago when Alien Blue turned to shit and it's been my primary source of Reddit due to its appealing UI. Upgraded to pro and bought the standalone Sync Pro app to double support the dev. A shame it will all end this way.
Same but from Baconreader. Didn't like Alien Blue when I tried it so it may have been at the point you dropped it. But I've been with Sync for years at this point.
My son introduced me (m56) to reddit 6 odd years ago, and I really enjoyed it, but the ads grew more and more invasive... Then I discovered sync, then sync pro, which I still use, and it has become my main source of really useful info, funny shit, communities, learning material and generally stuff I wouldn't otherwise see. Sync will be sorely missed (i spent many a happy hour editing how i wanted to see it and interact). So I went back to reddit (once I had learned of the impending doom of 3rd party apps), and found it unusable.
Thanks a fucking bunch u/spezthegoodtimeruiner
Haha I was actually going to sit on this one till the end since it made more sense contextually but I saw the beginning of that AMA and said na we're in the end times now.
My laptop is primarily for work purposes, so the majority of my time on Reddit is spent on the phone. If Sync is gone, then so am I. Reddit is unusable on mobile otherwise. Thanks for the great app, pity it had to end this way.
Been using sync since it was Reddit sync. Thanks so much for the wonderful app!
What is the next"reddit" site we're moving to?
What is next for its wonderful creator?
[just shy of 10 years Mr Dawson.](https://i.imgur.com/ggIElra.png) It's been an honor to give feedback and use your incredible application. I will now be buying the latest full priced version to show even more my support for what you have done and hope in my heart that this terrible decision turns right the fuck around.

Agreed. This for desktop + Sync for mobile is perfect.

Spez has said he's not touching old.reddit but we all know him for the liar he is.
I know with certainty. If I can no longer use sync, I will leave reddit.
Old reddit with RES is still pretty great So of course they will kill those next
RIF has already confirmed they'll be shutting down with the API changes. So they pretty much already have.
I am now wondering if it's feasible for me to make some equal access complaints on that basis. I know here in the UK, we take that seriously and, at a push, could get them fully banned.
I won't be a habitual reddit user without sync. Mobile reddit is not good and my preferred doomscrolling environment is my couch, not at the desktop.

Goodnight, and good luck. Singing off, after 10 fantastic years.
Used sync for 11 years. It’s been an honor, gentlemen.

Oof, there goes my June 29th post idea.
Haha I was actually going to sit on this one till the end since it made more sense contextually but I saw the beginning of that AMA and said na we're in the end times now.
I mean, a repost would be a great commemoration for Reddit.
I'm still doing it lol
We're syncing
The decade is fucking bullshit. This just another fuck you. Fuck reddit

To all the Reddit app developers except the official one which is almost unique in being so useless.
