    Reddit’s official app, and in fact Reddit’s official website is a hugely compromised experience, and I suspect the only reason they haven’t gone further is that they don’t want to push people to the alternatives. However this latest move to restrict the available alternatives seems like the beginning of the end to me and their app and site are only going to get worse.

    That’s why I’m here at least!

    I hate the official app with the fire of 1,000 suns. So if my only options are using the official app or leaving the site completely I’m leaving completely✌️

    Reddit’s official app and new reddit are awful experiences and actively hostile to the user. It’s nice to see a site that understands this.

      I hate new reddit so much. I just opened it. On my 1440p monitor I see 3 posts. Old reddit I can see 18 posts on one page.

        I never understood this argument. I can’t read more than one post at a time anyways and images are not immediately visible in the list view. What makes you want 18 posts visible at once?

          So you can select the post you want to actually look at instead of having to scroll and scroll to find one that interests you. Like in a classical forum post, essentially.
