How is Reddit's current mobile site so bad?
When you try to edit a Reddit comment in their mobile web app, it deletes all line breaks from your comment so you have to remember to manually put them back before submitting.
The other big issue I have is that when you type in and edited comment, it will omit spaces between words at random. JFC, there's no reason to use anything but a vanilla HTML input element (because only markdown formatting is supported), but they somehow fucked up basic text input anyway!
My last little gripe is that nothing in the interface tells you that markdown is supported, which is extra dumb because the desktop interface tries so hard to hide the fact that markdown even exists.
(And yes, there are a host of other annoyances, but I'm trying to limit my criticisms to things that can only be explained by incompetence.)
Well, I'm thankful for what you will bring to Lemmy!
I dunno how people put up with the shitty buggy Reddit app that is riddled with ads over so long.
Mobile browsing was actually not half bad on i.reddit.com (aka .compact mode), a mobile interface developed over 10 years ago that got killed last year.
Yeah in the past it was fine but now it’s unusable bc they absolutely want you to download their dumb app. No thank you.
