I’m desktop-only user and never had any experience with Reddit/Lemmy apps, and the sentiment towards them confuzes me.
I can imagine that the third-party apps for Reddit were better (?not bugged?) than the official one. But what made you to love them? Was the experience even better than desktop use?

Feel free to write about both Reddit and Lemmy apps in your responses.

    Reddit official mobile app, and New Reddit in general, is just awful for a certain kind of user. Everything is in huge bubbles, tons of wasted space, ads everywhere. I literally cannot bring myself to use it.

    I was an RES desktop/RiF mobile user. I’ve decided that I can get most of what I liked out of Reddit out of Lemmy. The content volume is less than what I’m used to, but it’s enough to hold my attention through my lunch break at work.

    The only thing I still use Reddit for is porn - none of the nsfw Lemmy instances I’ve found have really been what I’m looking for.
