Never again.
Don’t use reddit.
Make sure to leave a bad review in the app store and then uninstall it.
Beside the obvious don’t reddit, it happens alot in the kbin (web app) and lemmy apps too.
I’ve taken to stopping to randomly copy my comments to the clipboard, or if it’s an extra long response, writing it in a different app and then copy pasting it.
I’ve had this happen on kbin quite a few times as well, but even if it redirects to a new page with an error message, it always saves the text in the input field. Haven’t lost a single letter once.
Does it work differently for you? At what point does it lose some of your content?
Maybe it’s the browser (on vivaldi on android) I’m using, and part user error. If it errors out, it still keeps the comment, but im also used to lemmy throwing an error and then still posting, so I hit back to double check, and if I return my comment is gone and I have to restart. The comment does turn into the post in front of my eyes, so maybe I should trust it.
I also have trouble when I add pictures, the add picture box doesn’t go away unless i click off the “popup,” if that’s what you want to call it, sometimes I’ll just hit the wrong button, cause everything is tiny, and it will jump to another page all together and when I get back, I have to start over.
I miss Apollo.
Once I start spending 20 minutes on social media responses I delete the app anyway.
