The official Reddit app and new Reddit layout drive me crazy… The amount of suggested content and the confusing algorithm for best sort really turned it into facebook.
I find myself much happier here on Lemmy. I understand the algorithm. I’m even pleased to see that posts can last more than a day at the top of the “active” page. I think it means that Lemmy encourages discussion and going back to a topic even if it is a few days old. Probably better for our collective attention span.
i absolutely despise the Reddit app even on my cutting edge Android hardware. it sucks, it’s laggy and poorly designed - I can’t imagine the experience on a mid or lower-end phone
Reddit is just borderline unusable because of the API thing… The app is unusable, and Red Reader is just too bland to use.

Not to mention bloated and loads like crap on older mobile devices.
