I refuse to use the reddit app. Theres a lot of features missing that I require.
Making the font size adjustable requires hundreds of millions of dollars of investment! /s
I'm not surprised at the statistics. Redditors using third party apps were probably more likely to be hardcore users and contributors and not just consumers/lurkers. Taking away those apps without a suitable replacement was a totally braindead move, especially when your official app is inferior to almost every single third party app out there.
pretty sure blind people cant even use the official app, which pissed off the blind subreddit for some weird reason when 3rd party apps got nuked
And the volunteer community of content transcribers allied with the blind community, who's goal was to ultimately draw attention to the issue to improve accessibility on the reddit app. Go figure.
