Sink It for Reddit

If you’re trying to avoid the Reddit app nags, you must have this app. The developers of this app have been constantly battling for years and in the recent months, even more intensely with the Reddit app developers to fight official Reddit apps nags that are happening on Safari more and more frequently. This is the only app that I’m aware of that can really combat those apps nags and I’m currently in contact with one of the developers to combat yet another persistence and recent app nag that I and a few others are experiencing. Sink It for Reddit Team have done an excellent job of being able to update the app and consistently continue the fight to battle official Reddit app developers.

Sink It for Reddit is a game-changer for iOS users who value privacy and data control. As someone passionate about these issues, I can't recommend this Safari extension enough. The app's commitment to on-device content blocking and zero data exfiltration is impressive. Unlike many alternatives, Sink It doesn't even collect basic analytics, ensuring your browsing habits remain truly private. Data savings are substantial – I've cut my cellular usage by over 1GB daily compared to the official app. The option to disable autoplay and use the Classic view is a godsend for those on limited data plans. The clean, ad-free interface is a joy to use. Customizable gestures, easy comment navigation, and adaptive dark mode make browsing effortless. I especially appreciate the ability to hide specific subreddits from r/all. While it lacks some social features like chat, it excels at content consumption. For privacy-focused users who primarily browse and interact with posts, it's perfect. The only minor trade-off is relying on Apple's ecosystem, but Sink It provides ways to minimize data sharing. If you prioritize privacy and a streamlined Reddit experience, look no further. Sink It for Reddit is the extension you've been waiting for.

A big thank you to the dev for working hard to give back some power to those of us who dislike Reddit’s app and can’t stand the invasive ads and annoying “sign up for the app!!” popups every time you load a page on the mobile site. This app effectively gets rid of the pop up and also eliminates the promoted ads that invade the main Reddit feed like weeds giving the user a cleaner less frustrating experience; it also gives a bit of power back to the user so that you aren’t being railroaded into a one size fits all experience. Thanks again dev. Also if you ever redesign the app’s logo maybe use a stylized anchor with a Reddit-like alien or robot face on top (not too similar though for obvious reasons).
