Because Masai has been fence sitting ever since they won that title back in 2019. He's so in love with some of his own guys that I don't think he can bring himself to do a full teardown.
That is it, but unfortunately it only works with the official app. If I recall, it strips out a couple of the more annoying features and blocks ads.
Old Reddit was certainly plain and stripped-down, but when was it ever hard to use?
I'm just hoping that most of my favorite niche subs move to something more decentralized; Reddit has a bunch of specialized communities that I'd hate to lose.

The developer's also made an Xbox version, for any of you who might have one of those.
