I have about 5 different apps installed right now, and while I plan to test them all out, curious what people's conclusions are thus far.

I prefer my own app, but that's a given :P

I did like many aspects of the official Reddit app until they enshittified it, so I'm reusing some concepts it had. It's still in alpha phase, and even then, there's some things I liked that I'm not sure I'll implement. I particularly liked the second tab in the bottom navigation bar when it had your list of subscribed subreddits and an alphabetical scrollbar. That was super awesome. I'll definitely try to add something like that in the future, probably after I get feature parity with the official UI.

I'm avoiding pop-ups by editing the current relevant components. So, when you press "submit", the error message will be inside the form instead of as a pop-up. Or when you report a post, the form appears inside the post instead of as a pop-up. It's much more intuitive to use and I think I can make it faster to use.
