Like the rest of you, it sucks compared to Apollo. I don’t mind the ads. I would happily pay extra to not have to see them. I don’t mind the content it displays from subreddits of which it thinks I might be interested as its algorithm actually seems to be pretty good.
I just wish the change they had instead made was including all of this in the API feed so that apps like Apollo would be true peers in terms of content to the website and official app. I recognize that Reddit has to make money and that making money was the motivator behind the ill-conceived API change they made.
They could also rate limit the app API so they could charge companies like OpenAI more money.
All of this would be acceptable if it meant I could continue to use Apollo instead of the disaster that is the official app.
