Well Twitter on iOS started life as Tweetie which was an absolutely fantastic client on both iPhones and Macintoshes. I wouldn’t call it that now, even if some of the original Tweetie code is in there. Apollo with ads doesn’t seem like it is in Reddit’s business plan and after some time I think Apollo would go the way Tweetie did.
Edit: Something from the dredges of my memory just came back up and reminded me of something. The official Reddit client did start life as a 3rd party client: Alien Blue. [1]
So the real risk is Apollo becoming the next Alien Blue. Personally I would rather it stay independent.
