I have had this for 15 min, and it brings back RIF vibes. Just missing one thing: Could you bring back the post scroll? If viewing a video or image you could swipe up or down and go to the next/previous post.

Miles better than the official app, with plenty of customization to boot. I miss RiF, but this is great too.

This app saves Reddit from the pit into which its own app is dragging it. (The only downside is that without Red Reader I'd quit reddit altogether, which might be better for me lol)

For me, login problem starts with being unable to set Red Reader to use browser to open Reddit login page, it only opens it in Red Reader in Android 16. App hasn't been updated in over a year. Still working on older Android phones.

Just getting a moving circle at the bottom. No new posts

Unable to use this properly, because I can't add my Reddit account. Every text field on the login pages briefly shows the keyboard before it immediately collapses, so I can't add my username or password.
