Yeah, it is kind of shocking to think the company has been around for 18 years, and their app is still so bad people will pay for third party apps instead.
Reddit would’ve been better off buying out the most profitable/popular third party app, making minor housekeeping changes (app name, app logo, etc) and moving on. Instead they show themselves in the foot a little.
I agree, assuming their goal was to have an app that appeals to users. Possibly the one they have appeals to advertisers, although even advertisers probably prefer an app people use willingly.

They bought Alien Blue but then decided to write new apps from scratch.
It’s a “bad” app to you because you are not the paying customer. For the paying customer (advertisers), it’s a great app.
