Ratings and Reviews
Simplicity
Disclaimer: I also use another app which I won’t name (not trying to stir anything!) which resembles the old Apollo app for reddit. That was (maybe is) my preferred UI style for this type of website browsing experience
However, all that aside, I tried this app on android (yes I’m one of those sickos who lives in both worlds. Also windows, macos, and various Linux distros. Sick sick person I am…) and found it… actually pretty good. At first the differences from [Apollo like app] turned me off, but the simplicity grew on me and at least one specific feature has almost turned me into a full time user (I kinda flip back and forth seeing which I like better).
The best feature, and it’s not unique to this app nor do I want to imply that it is, is the the little link button under your own profile and your own comments. It kinda teleports you back to your own past comment to see the context. The way it’s implemented in this app is just simply perfect for my user habits. I prefer to NOT click notifications and sift through annoying and/or hate replies (don’t ask!) but rather to target certain comments I made and see the replies it received or sometimes I forgot the comment I was replying to or whatever. The point is, it teleports me to my comment, I can see the full context + new replies, and it’s perfect.
Only thing I’d really like to see is a dark icon of some sort. I appreciate the black black theme. I always use that when it’s option.
Great app so far, 5/5, I’ll keep following development and see where it goes (5/5 on Android too for any sickos in both worlds)
A good start
Works well, but is jittery when scrolling quickly. Also wish it had more gesture controls, and customization
Customizable!
I really like the post resize options. It’d be great if I could change some colors too, I feel like it would help differentiate post to post
