You mean "arbitrary", not "random" right?
I don't see how a randomly chose picture from reddit would be something the user would likely be interested in.
Mhm, maybe?
It fetches x amount of post (sorted by new, top, hot or rising, user choice) from a user specified subreddit, and from all of these results it takes one post at random and shows it to the user. So it's random, kind of.. it probably could use better wording for sure
That makes more sense than my initial interpretation, but why the random aspect at all?
