We should report them as fake. Not sure how many reports it takes to get someone to look at it but it might be worth a shot.

Imagine if Reddit, after cutting off so many 3rd party apps got their own app banned. Even if only temporarily.

I wouldn't be surprised, the reddit "leadership" has shown it's either their way or the highway even if their way leads to a cliff.

People must be doing that, I scrolled for a bit and didn't see a single 5 star review. The best part is most reviews call out exactly the same problems as my 1 star review from 2018. Very few even seem to mention the API or 3rd party apps. What have they been doing for 5 years?

Pushing awards and micro transactions for Snoos and not making a functional app with sleek and in line advertising placement

I’ve been reporting the ones I see on the Apple App Store

I reported some of the ones I saw on the App Store but I doubt it will do much good.
