I’m desktop-only user and never had any experience with Reddit/Lemmy apps, and the sentiment towards them confuzes me.
I can imagine that the third-party apps for Reddit were better (?not bugged?) than the official one. But what made you to love them? Was the experience even better than desktop use?
Feel free to write about both Reddit and Lemmy apps in your responses.
For me I found the new Reddit desktop site completely unusable. I hated everything about it. On desktop I used old.reddit with RES.
On mobile their 1st party app was similarly shitty like their new desktop ui. The 3rd party apps were much better but I didn’t necessarily prefer then over the old+RES desktop website.
Main reason I also used mobile apps was that I could browse Reddit while taking a shit.
