AlienBlue was reportedly good before Reddit bought it, so I’d say the official mobile app is intentionally bad.

Yeah, back in the day Alien Blue was better than almost any other app. It was the first place I ever used Reddit before I moved to Android. The official app is nothing like Alien Blue used to be. It’s been gutted and smeared in shit.

Yep I had alien blue back in the day and it was essentially what Apollo is today (not quite as fleshed out as Apollo though). When Reddit bought alien blue I was actually somewhat excited because it was a great app. But they completely destroyed and tarnished it. I’m sure the dev who sold it (or was hired by Reddit, I can’t remember) is sad about it.
