For those who lurk on Reddit - my ad-free, open source Reddit viewer RDX is an iPhone app now (apps.apple.com)

Posting the update here because most of the users of RDX come from Lemmy community only.

Why?

A lot of users asked for a more polished viewer with more features and users in the EU now can not add web apps to home screen, so I spent some time building an iOS app. You can also save images and videos/gifs from Reddit now. It's stil completely free (with an optional donate option available), the web app also works.

You can download the app here

My reddit web viewer still works! Story: When reddit killed 3rd party apps, I uploaded a web viewer I have been using for myself to Github pages for everyone to use...

If you want to lurk on Reddit, you can use this web reader I built for myself when I got inspired by the Apollo app years ago

Spez can get fucked. Not going to lurk there, but if I do need to ever view any reddit content, the best fuck you way of doing it would be to use a third party app and not see a single ad. So yeah, I'll give it a try if you release an Android version. Any plans?

Some people have asked about an Android app so maybe I will try to ship it by the end of this month. Thing is, I see thousands of users using the website but feedback/contributions etc are so small I don't even know what people want. I mean I am not expecting 5 star reviews/donations from every user using it but people don't even give good/bad feedback. I also don't want to force tracking because that's what I myself despise. So there is not way to know what people want unless they use the feedback form and tell me.

I am the mouthy broad you love to hate. Make an Android version and I'll tell you everything I can, using proper vernacular. I'm a frontend developer so I might actually offer helpful feedback.

Android version in a week.

I saw, but don't feel pressured. Take your time. We'll still be here.
