So since this app is obviously less feature filled than the apps that it intends to replace (thinking alien blue)... what are people using as their new reddit app?

I've been trying to adjust to Narwhal, but its not quite sticking with me for some reason. Suggestions?

I'm sticking with Alien Blue at the moment, as I mentioned in another comment the new app doesn't even come close IMO and I'm sure they'll give the old line of 'we're working hard to improve it every day, adding new features etc... etc...' - but Alien Blue wasn't broken - it has been one of the best designed apps on my phones over the years. Why replace something people rated so highly with something half assed and piecemeal?
I've tried most (if not all) of them on Android and stopped on "reddit is fun" as it's the most pliable for my needs.
I like Antenna on ios. Maybe a little adjustment because it's strongly gesture oriented, but once you get comfortable with that, it feels pretty natural.
On Android, Baconreader is king for me. One of three apps I've actually bought in my nearly 8 years on Android.
He's live talking about the app now FYI
