I’d rather crawl the 20 extra miles to a new community (and did) than use that app again. It’s that bad.
The reviews on Google Play are very telling. It’s just a buggy mess.
Despite it not being available through i.reddit.com, compact mode is still reachable at reddit.com/.i, and I find it even better than old reddit for mobile.
tried it out, doesn’t seem to actually be usable for anything other than reading the home page not logged in and links thereof. For example I can’t https://reddit.com/.i/r/Cricket or similar
hehe x)
Reddit still has a massive legacy worth exploring sometimes, so having a nice way to do it is definitely good. Libreddit and teddit exist as well.
I gave it a good, genuine try after they killed Alien Blue, because surely they bought that app to do something useful with it, right? Nope. Absolute garbage, and I begrudgingly made the switch to Apollo. Reddit is my last non-Fediverse based social media site and the only thing keeping me on it was the content and excellent app interface - the minute Apollo stops working, Reddit is dead to me. I’d rather post into the abyss than use the official app or website.

old.reddit.com on a mobile browser is still 100 times better than the “official” reddit app.

I had no idea. I had never even seen this until today
Always learning ;)
Hopefully reddit won’t take it down

The ideal is to append that
/.iat the end of the URL. Like so: https://www.reddit.com/r/Cricket/.iEdit: which also works for login: https://www.reddit.com/login/.i
THANKS! Just in time for it not to matter anymore :-P
