True black mode made this the go-to Reddit client
By wojovox (Pcmac user)
I was an Alienblue user when it was a good app. Then Reddit bought Alienblue just to destroy it and replace it with the official Reddit app which I only hear bad things about. the app took the best of what users love about Alienblue and expanded upon it. The $4 to make this ad-free was more than worth it. The app is so good, the developers are selling t-shirts now due to demand. And now, with the update of true black mode, no more greyscale night mode; this things looks absurdly polished now. Just pick this up and never return to another Reddit client that leaves screen real estate to die on the sides or never go back to official Reddit nonsense.
Update: severe issues with multiple accounts. Sometimes I have to uninstall/reinstall to get back to my other account.

Inconsiderate icon design
By Quality reviewer (Pcmac user)
The devs mentioned that a lot of people complain about the icon, but that they have no intention on changing it.
It's weird right. You don't see such complaints on other Reddit apps. But the devs are perfectly fine to tell you to go elsewhere if you are unhappy. Wouldn't it be polite to respect the user a bit.... Maybe not use a color scheme and art direction that clashes with every color scheme and wall paper you could pick? Many different people want a solid Reddit app. To go "well we like the design so we won't change it"... Isn't that an indicator of a developer who doesn't care? Any time this app is brought up, the design of it, the mascot eating bacon... The devs have no respect for the breadth of content that can be consumed on Reddit and how cohesive a dolphin eating bacon and a vegetarian subreddit might mesh. Or maybe adults who look at philosophy subreddit who are looking for a more serious experience. It's just a selfish decision, and I hope developers star really caring about what the people want.
Edit: and the fact that you can customize the app icon means nothing. This creepy cartoon is still everywhere in the interface.

Still my favorite Reddit client
By Fluffy-face (Pcmac user)
I’ve tried several Reddit clients. Yes, even the one that was huge in 2017. And yet this is the client I come back to. This client has everything some of the other clients offer for money—logins for multiple accounts, dark mode, icons, and more. And what I really like about this client is I can preview a webpage in the app’s browser while looking at a Reddit thread at the same time. I haven’t seen a feature like it in other Reddit clients or even the official app. This client is totally worth paying the developers to only remove ads.

Great App, but has recent freezing issues
By Iannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn (Pcmac user)
This app came through clutch once I had to let go of Alien Blue. It took some getting used to since I used Blue for sooo long, but once I got the hang of the format I quickly learned to love it.
The ease of organizing your most frequented subreddits is probably my favorite feature. Also the search feature is great! Commenting is easy along with upvoting and downvoting.
Recently I’ve run into issues with a freezing bug. It has only gotten worse every day for the last week. The app will just randomly freeze when scrolling forcing me to close the app and wait a second before opening it up again. I’m sure this bug will be fixed, but it’s gotten to the point where the app is almost unusable. Please fix it so I can go back to loving this app!
