Love this

I often catch myself getting involved in something on reddit when it really just doesn’t matter and is a waste of my energy. This app prevents that, you can’t log in to your account so you’re forced to just lurk and enjoy the content. Love the concept and the actual UI is off to a great start—snappy and clean. A little more customization in terms of gestures and layout etc. and this app will be a big hit.

Thank you for this

Such a well executed idea. My only complaints are occasionally freeze ups that could be more of a hardware compatibility thing more than anything else. It mostly happens when scrolling or trying to expand a post to view comments

You’re doing great work!

Nice way to browse Reddit

No stupid ads, it’s easy enough to stay engaged if you want to comment with all the link options to open in browser. It’s been my replacement for Apollo and way better than using the official app. Highly recommended if you don’t need it for moderating
