Who knew the app was so bad?
Mobile dev here - I gave it half a dozen one stars on both Google Play and iOS
Reddit is 100% already crying to Google about “review brigading” and will get almost every 1star review since the API changes removed. Money looks out for money.
There was a post about the large number of recent one-word five-star reviews recently. I suspect they don’t want Google looking too closely at the legitimacy of their reviews.
I just flagged it as inappropriate - other and stated that such a garbage app should not be an “editor’s choice” app.
Same for the App Store for the last 3 weeks or so.
Most people who’ve used the app know it’s technically challenged. One star is more than it deserves in my opinion.
And how long until they start being deleted?
Reddit is deleting itself, CEO never learns
It definitely deserves a 1 star rating and I encourage everyone to do the same.
The official reddit app is a piece of shit spyware. Just watch all the metrics that fly back to home base when your using it.
When I had iOS I liked the app and didn’t see the need to use a third party one.
Now I’m on Android and the official app is a stuttery mess, so I moved to a third party one and left a bad review mentioning the performance.
Yup, I left a one star review as soon as I learned about this crap. I started how I’d always used third party apps and all quitting reddit because of their bullshit. As a final touch, I left a few links to some sites for the fediverse and said that is migrated there instead
Wondering if dowloading it just to give 1 star review does more harm than good
