I’m one of the few that never used the third party apps for Reddit during my time there. Only the official app. And even I could tell you that app was miserable. No exaggeration, every third post is a massive ad. Once you’ve scrolled far enough your entire feed becomes ads. You have to close out/refresh to make it go back to normal.
Wefwef is a glitchy web app that doesn’t let me scroll or post comments sometimes made and maintained by some dude in his basement, and it’s still preferable to the official app of a company seeking a multimillion dollar IPO
Try Liftoff it's what I've been using and it's wonderful. Elegant in its simplicity.
I’ll check it out, thanks!
Regardless, I really don’t care much about the glitches or slowdown if it means I don’t have to see a full screen “He Gets Us” ad every two goddamn seconds.
I gotta ask, why did you never look at third-party options if you found it so miserable?
I’m a strong creature of habit :/
Fair enough. Glad you got out!
On Liftoff it's needed to be logged in on every instance (it handles multiple accounts), so I don't find it convenient even though I admire how polished the interface is.
Try Memmy. Pretty close to the Apollo experience imo.
Memmy is my new favorite app. Ticks all the right boxes with some minor annoyances. I’m spending way too much time in it 😄
Beta is full
I believe the app is under review to be placed in the App Store so hopefully will be available to everyone soon.
It said that for me too yesterday but then later that day I found a different link that let me join the testflight beta

Looks like this is Android only. Us iOS users stuck using wefwef.
Memmy or mlem on iOS. Try those.
The Memmy TestFlight is full at the moment, but should be on the App Store soon. I highly recommend it.
Mlem and wefwef started good, but imo, they’re not there yet. They both look good, but are still missing a lot of my preferred functionality. Development also seems slow compared to Memmy too, but Memmy’s dev is also a machine pumping out updates every day.
