On a whim I decided to give the official app a try because a lot of people will be forced to use it, if they decide to stay on Reddit.
Holy hell, it’s just slow. Can’t scroll through a subreddit without annoying hitches and stutters. Comments aren’t any better also.
On the other hand, Sync is just fucking gorgeous and runs immensely better than the encumbered official app.
How can apps made by small teams or even a single person be better optimized than one supposedly made by a larger team with a larger development budget?
I use Relay Pro for Reddit (which is fantastic) but obviously that won’t be viable in a week. I go on maybe once a day for 5 minutes just to see the state of the protests but I get annoyed about how many subs just appear to be ‘back to normal’. Of course, after next week I expect that to change.
