It has some quirks that make it annoying to deal with. It doesn’t load videos very well in-app. It will show the same set of posts in the same order again (I want to say 6 posts but I don’t have an actual count). It is also very aggressive about sending you back to the beginning of the feed which you have already seen. I am aware of the option to hide viewed posts but that doesn’t feel right. I was writing a lengthy comment and wanted to verify something on Wikipedia quick. When I went back into the app, it showed the comment for a split second then booted me back to the beginning. No draft, and now I can’t even find the post since the search doesn’t work all that well. I’ll be looking for a new app
It was slow and buggy in the past but it has signifcantlly improved. They are also supporting android, so it is best if you want a consistent experience across devices. Slightly slower than native apps, but barely noticable now, mostly on initial load. The card view here is my favorite, voyagers large view is slightly worse imo. The beta supports piefed. Missing features: Blocking Users Dms Still use other apps for that sadly.
