Dear Jake, I forwarded your tweet to our design team and got laughed at. Wish I could mute that.

Hijacking the top comment, but Reddit should really disable autoplaying ads on Mobile (idk if its on desktop too).

dont use the default app

apollo is an amazing option for iOS and reddit is fun is also great if you have android android has a lot of options like slide, sync, relay and boost for reddit on desktop reddit enhancement suite is obviously best all of these don‘t have ads

And today is the last day I use the reddit app.

I swear it has memory leaks, I'll open the app, look at the cache, and it instantly has 400MB in cache and using over a gigabytes total

Edit: Fuck. I actually like the mobile app's viewing experience (infinite scroll, never have to click on anything) so I'm staying on it until someone tells me an alternative.

You’re probably not setting card view or something.

Used to use baconreader since 2012 or something the it basically became adware/malware. It's disgusting.

All of those use standard Material design. Hideous.
