So the problem with Redgifs is a messy one. There are two ways to embed their videos, one is through their embed code which includes lots of redgifs branding, is tiktok like and not so natie (but it helps them track you etc). The other is a mp4 file that just works like any other video except they don't have audio. Since almost all of the gifs on Redgifs are nsfw I chose the kater method to display their vids. You can always click the little safari icon (or the globe icon on android) and view the redgif with audio.

Coincidence? Or is IKEA doing some astroturfing to hide bad news? in c/reddit

This shouldn't happen, I have tested the app on multiple devices. Try this go to the settings tab, click on donate page or appearance page then try swiping left to right from the left most edge. If even that doesn't work please tell me about the device you are using.

Just swipe back from the left edge? swiping from right will take you to the post page again. Just like a browser.

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/16670881

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

Sorry RDX for Reddit's EU users, you won't be able to add RDX web app (or any other PWA) to your home screen in the latest iOS update (rdx.overdevs.com)

Apple is removing PWA(progressive web apps) from EU Which means:

Your subscribed subs will be removed if you don't use the app in the last 7 days - https://stackoverflow.com/a/76792560
Your saved posts will be removed in the same way, and all other settings if you don't consistently use the website.
You won't get the options I have added like a fixed header for standalone version.

So any PWA website that you currently use won't be able to store anything in your localstorage for more than 7 days after you visiting that website.

Reason: Apple confirms: It's killing home screen web apps in the EU

All GIFs now load faster than ever.
OP's comments are labelled.
New themes and fonts. (not just the default dark and white, go colorful)

I posted about that here and forgot < https://lemmy.world/post/896361> but today when I checked cloudflare analytics it showed about 1000 pageviews in last 24 hours. Looks like some people are using it so just wanted to let you guys know that it works, no ads. no popups nothing.

You can't login or anything but it's good for viewing posts and media and you can switch subreddits easily by clicking on the page title in the center like Apollo. Also it's on Github.
