It's inevitable that I'll still have to filter search results by Reddit to find genuine information, but if the only option for Reddit is the official app/website, I'll just stop browsing and commenting altogether. I don't understand how their official app could remain so bad.

What's really strange is Reddit could have a good app because they just bought the most popular iOS client, Alien Blue, back in 2014.

I still can't understand why they would buy a perfectly good app just to replace it.

Because what is good for the user and what is good for company revenue don't always align (at least in the short term).
