How could you possibly doubt the word of uh... Jefferey Tromp and his good friend Romaine.
Those look so fake
I’m interested in the second one shown. It’s 5 stars but they’re sorry it doesn’t work…?
100% fake. I reported them as spam personally
that's really interesting.
The official app deserves 1-star regardless of the API shutdown. Even Jerboa and other Lemmy apps in their extremely buggy alpha state have a better user experience than the official Reddit app.
Thanks for reminding me to actually go give it its 1-star on Google Play!
Like honestly I wouldn't be too mad if the official app was actually good, but it's basically unusable.
And thanks for reminding me to do the same! It's crazy how much worse the official app is - it should be the best Reddit app, not the worst.
Exactly. For a multimillion dollar company, their app sure is shittier and buggier than 3rd party apps maintained by single devs. It lacks absolute basic features like text formatting shortcuts with Bold/Italics/Quote/List/etc options that should pop up over the keyboard while typing. Every 3rd party app I've used has had that.
This is the way
I’m glad to see this but app stores have anti review bomb measures so this might not make a difference
Yeah, probably, but the message is what's important here. We need this happening, we need people talking about it as much as possible. We can't just stay quiet.
Good Riddance.
I actually tried the official app and it just pissed me off.
Just a couple of more days now before they turn off access. Nice.
After seeing this post, I went to the play store to give my 1 star review.
Then I saw that I already put 1 star back in 2017 stating that the app is crap xD
The last major time something like this happened was with the Robinhood trading app. Not sure about iOS, but Google very helpfully declared that negative reviews made during a major scandal are illegitimate and removed them all, artifically bringing the app ratings back up. So keep an eye out for if Reddit's ratings suddenly recovers on Google.
Looks like they’re paying for fake reviews.
