Okay, so I'm generally reluctant to jump on bandwagons without first hand knowledge and therefore, after the death of RIF yesterday, I installed the official Reddit app for the first time to see if it really was as bad as people say.
Oh boy I was not prepared. It's awful. It's eye-wateringly corporate. There's irrelevant suggested content and disguised ads. The focus doesn't feel like it's on the content itself, but more about keeping you scrolling.
I don't plan to continue using it.
