Why not point Apollo at a Reddit alternative, or use the open-source code for Reddit (or code like this https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit) instead of shutting it down?
If Apollo's users (or a good percentage of them) moved over to an alternative platform, that would be poetic justice, at least.
To go even further, all the app devs should get together and create a new platform or pick one Reddit alternative and point all their apps at it.
That way it would be even more likely to get critical mass quickly.
3 weeks should be enough time to come up with a coordinated plan. Don't let Reddit push you out -- push them out and let your users stick with the app they love.
Reddit is only its users, nothing else. They don't own the users' loyalty -- the apps do. Take advantage of that and teach them a lesson by pointing the apps and users elsewhere!
