On a whim I decided to give the official app a try because a lot of people will be forced to use it, if they decide to stay on Reddit.
Holy hell, it’s just slow. Can’t scroll through a subreddit without annoying hitches and stutters. Comments aren’t any better also.
On the other hand, Sync is just fucking gorgeous and runs immensely better than the encumbered official app.
How can apps made by small teams or even a single person be better optimized than one supposedly made by a larger team with a larger development budget?
It’s crazy to me that people still don’t know of adblockers in 2023 but there’s an absolute shit-ton of those people.
Remember that a lot of people are on mobile. Android’s standard browser doesn’t allow you to install adblockers anymore, last I checked. Doubt safari does either.
