The fact that this BAMF in ~8 weeks made an app that is eminently more usable, user friendly, customizable, intuitive and about the same level of bug issues as the official reddit app which has been out for what a decade and probably has the support of 10x the Dev FTE is all the more reason to laugh at the inefficient reddit greed machine and support Reuben as well as info federation.
Fun fact about the official reddit app: It used to be a 3rd party app and was quite good back then. Reddit bought it instead of developing a new one from the ground up, and then made it successively but constantly worse. So the comparison should be slightly different. Mayo is creating a new good app faster than reddit can destroy a once good app.
