The official app is complete and utter garbage. There was no way I would continue on Reddit using this waste of bytes.

At the beginning I was hopeful that the devs would work something out with Reddit. I would have paid for a subscription on Boost for sure.

Well, we all know how the admins responded. Zero respect for moderators or users, the very people who keep their product alive. If you have the tiniest bit of self-respect leaving Reddit is the only choice.
