### 5/5 — Goood!

*2023-01-12, version 1.1.1*

good app, does exactly what it needs to do. idc for the updates, blank space doesnt bug me as much as the rest of this review section. would you be able to add notifications? :) as in, whenever a new reply is posted in a thread youre watching, you get a notification.

### 4/5 — Guess I’m special

*2022-07-16*

Apparently this app crashes a lot for other people. Doesn’t for me for some reason. Clearly the devs abandoned it quite a while ago but running it on my igoy 11 seems to work fine.  Resolution hasn’t been updated for modern devices but other than that it’s fine
