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

    Very neat. I haven’t used Reddit in a year, but I wanted to check out your app out of curiosity. I think I feel much healthier without it being a regular part of my life, but this is an interesting window I could glance through from time to time.

    The comment collapse feature seems to work very inconsistently. Where should you be tapping or how in order to collapse a comment thread?

      On the comment text? Anywhere works except the edges or where the u/user link is. Double tapping a comment should collapse the comment and the comments in it’s own thread.

        I wasn’t double tapping intentionally! That’s the ticket. I was tapping around looking for a collapse trigger and must have occasionally tapped quickly enough to earn a double tap.

        Very cool and thanks for making this.

          When you tap three dots(…) on the top-right of every comment, a menu opens. It has a collapse option when clicked it displays the exact same information on how to collpase the comment. I added it specifically because people keep asking about how to collapse the comments.
