the major shift should happen on July 1st right?
Yeah, that's the expectation. Apollo (iOS) will shut down June 30. Sync (Android) is creating a lemmy version and will blast that announcement in the reddit version on June 30 (https://lemmy.world/post/527443).
Yep the users that still scour the subreddits using 3rd party apps will have to leave too or live with old.reddit for its remaining days
This is just speculation but I think there will be a wave of users in july and it will come in waves as reddit becomes worse and worse more people will eventually migrate.
