Great alternative to Reddit app

Been looking for a new Reddit app since Apollo has been gone. The official Reddit app has too much junk, this is a perfect alternative.

What are you doing devs?

Every update they make this app worse and worse. LEAVE IT ALONE OR GET A NEW DEV TEAM. App is absolutely abysmal now. Scroll to fast, crash. Quickly close out of a post, crash. Search for something, you guessed it, crash. Used to be enjoyable before. Now it's just garbage.

One of my favorite apps

Best way to experience reddit and I find the pro subscription worth it. Gallery mode is awesome and the filtering out options are great. There’s also so much customization. Hydra puts all other reddit apps to shame

Slopification continues

Charging people to download videos? No thanks. This app is a vibe coded disaster.

Downloading videos with audio only with a subscription. What a joke

Downloading videos with audio only with a subscription. What a joke?! Seriously??? What is this? Will go back to Apollo.
