I was asked to post here. cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/18458440
Since a lot of you asked me to build an Android version and post about it here when I launch, and I sincerely apologise that I forgot to post on lemmy sooner. The free app was launched on Play store almost a month ago and has garnered some excellent reviews. It has feature parity with the iPhone App and works on all Android 8.0+ devices.
You can download the app here.
Any feedback is wholeheartedly welcome, you can also post issues and contribute to the rdx web app on Github.

I'm confused. I thought we were all here because reddit killed 3rd party software such as this? Did the api decision get reversed or something?

What's the point of you can't interact?
DoctorWhookah@sh.itjust.works · 29 pts · 2y
Lurking content should you find Lemmy lacking.
AWittyUsername@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y
I'll just do that in Firefox with ublock then. At least I can interact if I wanted then.

Browsing posts, silly.
They did say: Reddit VIEWER

What part of "lurkers" in the OP title did you understand?
JaY_III@lemmy.ca · 14 pts · 2y
Just tried it and ran into a rate limit.
No doom scrolling, hidden feature
overdevs@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y
It's 100 requests per 10 minutes. I also cache so 90% of people don't run into that rate limit.
IrateAnteater@sh.itjust.works · 4 pts · 2y
Could be good for things like the creative writing subreddits, where interaction is secondary
scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech · 28 pts · 2y
Pass. I didn't leave reddit just because I wanted to get around it later using scraping and workarounds.
I'm here as long as it remains open. I enjoy the people here more too

I keep Stealth installed to use for search redirects, this could be useful for that.
It's play store only though, so I'm passing too

Will upload an APK somewhere.

Since your app is open source, I think it would make great sense to either submit it to the F-Droid repo, create your own repo that people can add to their F-Droid client, or host the project in one of the places that are already supported as a source in the Obtainium app.

I also use Stealth for my Reddit experience. It also doesn't support comments or logging in. :) https://f-droid.org/packages/com.cosmos.unreddit/

I've been using rdx since it first released, and In super happy with the app! Thank you for that!

Thank you for your kind words.

Infinity still works
mEEGal@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y
not for me...
notenoughbutter@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 2y
use revanced manager
oldfart@lemm.ee · 1 pts · 1y
Very hit and miss, I have to switch random VPN endpoints amd it takes 10-20 tries before I find one that works with Infinity.

it loads 500 comments by default to save on requests. Only a problem on posts with > 300 comments. Will add an option to load N number of comments only.
WhyFlip@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y
Is it possible to disable "Next Page" in favor of continual scrolling?
overdevs@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y
Settings > Appearance > Infinite Scrolling >Toggle On

Thanks

Hey I have noticed occasional updates that have been great! I am curious if you would consider adding a sorting by controversial? Keep up the good work though! It’s been nice just getting to see what’s going on at Reddit without supporting them.
overdevs@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y
Done. Will push the update to play store tomorrow.

Any fix for the repeating post issue? I've attached a pic. This is on my Samsung s22 ultra. Videos sometimes have issues too where they'll play then the video freezes while the sounds and stuff still continue playing.
overdevs@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 1y
Oh you use compact mode? You will love the 1.5 update just arrived on Play Store. About the repeating posts issue unfortunately it's reddit side problem [1] [2] the other issue where you play a video and the audio keeps playing could most probably be a buffering or memory issue(I haven't encountered one on Android yet) but if you do encounter it next time please screen record and send me if you can.

Ok!

Is there a way for me to "subscribe" to certain subs? I'd like to not have to type "Berserk" or "BHorrorMovies" everytime
overdevs@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y
top right sort button on the subs page, there is a subscribe button at bottom of the list.
