rdx for Reddit

Loved using this app when it worked, but sadly Reddit seems hellbent on preventing anyone from using anything other than their garbage Reddit app, and now I can’t see any posts anymore. This app was perfect for letting me see all the posts I wanted in full size on my phone without getting bogged down in UI, ads, or things I didn’t need. RIP, we lost a real one 🪦

Was a long time user of Apollo user and this has been a good alternative since it went under. Two large bugs I keep hitting lately have me looking for another app currently though until fixed. 1. Scroll down for 20 topics and the hits a message saying “Can’t load content! Refresh the page or try again later.” Under that it says “loading more posts” but it never does. It’s just stuck. Never used to happen, now non stop in all subreddits. 2. Before the bug above popped up, quite often I would get 20 topics and then when it loaded 20 more, I would get the exact same 20 repeated. Then I would have to keep scrolling to get 20 fresh. Topics has been an ongoing bug ever since I started using this app while annoying, I suppose that bug was better than stopping the ability to load any content at all after 20 topics. It would happen repeatedly, even when scrolling down a long way, you would get repeats, but never more than once in a row. So 20, same 20, 20 new, 20 new 20 new, 20 same, 20 new… and on and on.

Overall app is easy to use, very Apollo esque! I’d say audio and video are solid with some minor boggles here and there. But overall feed quality has been stellar esp the randomness of the main landing page. I don’t know how this app developer is sustaining this app with the bizarre API rates required by Reddit on 3rd party. Props to them!
