Look, there is nothing intrinsically wrong with liking an app that many others don’t. But it is a bit naïve to think you’re not going to get a lot of people disliking your comment, also because of the way you phrased it. Many of us used third-party apps, and we’re not used to being bombarded with ads, we knew exactly which subs we liked and didn’t and really don’t appreciate getting five suggestions every day for some random subreddit, claiming we would love it. Then there is the use of personal data and the weird decisions with taking away chat histories and awards that people. I guess if most of us really liked the Reddit app, we wouldn’t be spending so much time here. At least for me, leaving reddit was not a decision I took on a whim, and I think many other lemmings will agree.

TLDR: the Reddit app really does suck. Glad to be here.
