Currently using Avelon 1.06 and I must say the QoL improvements plus the themes. Very very close to Apollo now in my opinion.

As one of the first users of Avelon, I must say, you have come a long way. Good job!

I agree. It’s just that Apollo has been my go to Reddit experience for so long that I can’t help but miss it. But Avelon is doing a great job at making me move on

What's your top 3 missing features from Apollo? I'll try my best to add them if possible

What I miss most in order: -Video scrubbing (apollo would let me swipe anywhere rather than just the time bar which I miss across my phone) -Sharing/downloading video files like pictures -Share as image (shares text posts as an image, and adds the title to image posts.) Share as image for comments (including n parent comments, and post details as options)

What made apollo so great for me though was how smooth it felt, its optimizations, and its support for so many different websites and services. Overall, Avelon has been an incredible app even without these features. Thank you for developing it.

Same. Although iOS 17 killed the swipe anywhere to scrub video feature :(
