📣 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. ❤️

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/apolloapp

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • PowerDeleteSuite

    Power Delete Suite for Reddit

  • Anyone who will be deleting their accounts after this, please use something like https://github.com/j0be/PowerDeleteSuite to remove all your posts and comments first. Don’t let reddit keep your data, leave them with nothing.

  • apollo-backend

    Discontinued Apollo backend server

  • First off, Apollo does no scraping, it's purely through authenticated calls to the API and has checks in place to ensure it stays within Reddit's API rate limits. I've open sourced the server code to show this.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Lemmy

    🐀 A link aggregator and forum for the fediverse

  • Mark my words: in a matter of months you'll notice a degradation of hyperlinks. They might cut Markdown support, or insert black box ranking lowering the score of posts containing some, or something else with the same goal. There are some Reddit alternatives on ActivityPub – Brutalinks, Lemmy, Lotide, etc. – billionaires just hate hyperlinks.

  • Reddit

  • Up until a week ago, the stated Reddit API rate limits that apps were asked to operate within was 60 requests per minute per user. That works out to a total of 86,400 per day. Reddit stated that Apollo uses 345 requests per user per day on average, which is also in line with my findings. Thats 0.4% of the limit Reddit was previously imposing, which I would say is quite efficient.

  • kbin

    A reddit-like content aggregator and micro-blogging platform for the fediverse.

  • For everybody who has the same idea, you can do more than just deleting your account. You can use the various reddit account nuking scripts that edit and strip out every comment and submission. If you want, you may even archive your contents beforehand. Hell, I'm sure there is a way to back them up with a custom KBin instance.

  • tafkars

  • u/iamthatis I, for one, would be completely fine continuing my subscription to Apollo while you covert it to work with kbin or something. I'm new to the whole fediverse thing still but here's an effort to allow you to switch over with minimal code changes: https://github.com/derivator/tafkars/tree/main/tafkars-lemmy

  • Unwrap

  • Anything Paul Hudson (https://www.hackingwithswift.com)

  • bulk-downloader-for-reddit

    Downloads and archives content from reddit

  • Honestly even if they reversed the API changes, I don't think this is a platform I'd like to use anymore, and I doubt I'm alone in that stance. I recommend using BDFR to save your content if you also decide to delete your account.

  • Nuke-Reddit-History

    Discontinued Chrome Extension to overwrite and nuke reddit history.

  • PixelFed

  • Corporation-controlled social media keeps self-destructing, I'm really tired of it. Not that they are the same as Reddit at all, but I'm glad that at least Mastodon, PixelFed, and the Fediverse at large are still an option.

  • Mastodon
