The RedReader app has been given accessibility status by the graciousness of reddit and will not have to shut down. The dev is not particularly happy about how fellow devs were treated though and still plans on adding lemmy in future. Read the announcement here

One of the really positive things about this Reddit situation is that I've learned a lot about the community of passionate third party developers out there. I've never used Red Reader, but if he's able to keep it going with Reddit, and slowly but surely introduce users to Lemmy within its UI, then that's basically optimal. Half the battle of Lemmy is the sign up friction. If you can sign people up within their existing Reddit app, that's ideal.
