Was never designed for mobile either, hence why third party apps popped up

Bullshit. I’ve been using third party apps before the official one ever existed

The official app was a third party app until Reddit bought it.

Before I switched over here and this situation started getting big, I saw a post over on Reddit that explained how the "official" Reddit app was actually a third party app that they bought out...

[–] RandomStickman@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Yup. They bought Alien Blue, swapped the logo colour to orange, made it the official logo and called it a day.

This guy will dig a deeper and deeper hole for himself it seems.

I think you mean Digg

Same talking points from the AMA. Nothing new here. He's just a mouth piece. The other interview with the Apollo dev was more interesting. The verge says more of the interview is coming but I can't see why they held back except that it probably doesn't have much either and they just want more clicks.

They really don't have a better mouth piece than this guy?

Ha ha... Someone internally really needs to be like "dude, seriously shut up at this point you're just making it worse" .

There is nothing more amusing than someone with an enormouse ego making a complete cluster fuck of a situation.

No point in getting mad anymore. Dumb-dumb's already said he'll be profit driven until he gets money. This just proves it's at the expense of the users. Reddit's just going to get worse.

I swear to God if someone gave me reddit and said, "make this thing profitable," I really don't think it'd be as hard as he seems to think it is.
