Influx of Lemmy brothers and sisters incoming. Already 3K and growing deep, we may as well rebuild together. Let's do this! 🤝

Edit : Yes there are workarounds using Revanced. Check the comments for some awesome help on how to do this if you wish! Just know, in the future it will most likely end up being patched annoyingly and I therefore recommend looking forward to the future with us here.

I don't find the official reddit app to be usable, it's twice as slow as any 3rd party app I tried, enabling sound for a single video in the feed allows Everything you scroll past to scream at you, which is obnoxious, and it's wildly unintuitive (though this one is more of a personal preference than a problem with the app per se).

See I've never had any sort of issues with that across multiple android devices and one iPhone device. I've used the official reddit app over all of the third party apps (literally tried most of not all, across android and iOS) and I prefer the official app over them all.

The only issue I've had was battery optimization on my low end android but once I upgraded to an iPhone and later a new android it was fine.

The iPad app has been broken in “more space mode” for over 9 months now and makes it essentially impossible to use, the original comment would be left then a response on the right then another response on the left then a new comment on the right and there’s no way to tell it’s a new comment thread. The official Reddit app is the only app I’ve come across that’s been broken in “more space mode”.
