probably the kind of person to scream "woke DEI" everytime they see someone who isn't white working at burger king.
i'm so tired of lazy greedy developers implying i'm a moron with their radical leftist "code"
Oh boohooh did the poor wittle "conservative" encounter pushback on its silly wittle Fox-news-adled ideas?
I use RDX still if my Internet searches come up with a reddit page (technical troubleshooting)
Excellent app
Ahh they stepped out of their echochamber because the app shows r/all if youre not subscribed to any subreddit. Also, sometimes im forced to use reddit, love your app.
I’m going to give you a five star review to balance it. (Swiss app store)
How does it work after the API butchering?
Yeah I’m curious too! What technical sorcery is OP doing for presumably free API access
Just challenge the review because it's not about the app? If you can't do that, then just let it go.
That was a very diplomatic response to some stupid asshole like this.
Too diplomatic even.
Are you allowed to respond honestly?
If you made a response like:
"Dear reviewer,
When I wrote the code for this app, which displays content from reddit that I have no control over, I never envisioned some fuckwit moron would be so stupid that he or she would get mad at the App for just displaying what's on reddit.
In the future, I'll add a disclaimer that goes "Are you some anti-DEI piece of shit who thinks everything is Woke? Press the large red button icon below to only see the "based" subreddit." I hope this will help you understand how to use this App, you fucking idiot.
Sincerely, Developer"
would that get your kicked off the store?
"This oven is horrible! 0 stars! Everything my wife makes on it or in it tastes terrible, "
Sorry, yo. Ya can't fix stupid.
Like writing a product review and giving one star for shipping speed lol.
Or recipe reviews.
"I didn't have flour, so I substituted lard. I also didn't have sugar, so I substituted salted cod. Worst cake ever. 1 star."
I loved this idea it was exactly what was described but I wanted a different color 1/5 stars
This item funtioned exactly as intended but didnt do what i wanted it to do.
One star.
After selling on eBay I once got the feedback that the buyer was deeply disappointed because what he had received was exactly what had been listed and shown in the photo, but nothing else, which somehow he had hoped for.
Standard reply:
Dear sir or madam:
Some crackpot has written me an abusive message, and it seems they used your account to send it. I'm replying to you as a courtesy in case you wish to take action against this lunatic.
I'm guessing you're basing it off of this official legal correspondence, which I am including below for people who haven't seen it:
Dear Mr. Cox:
Attached is a letter that we received on November 19, 1974. I feel that you should be aware that some asshole is signing your name to stupid letters.
Very truly yours,
CLEVELAND STADIUM CORP.
James N. Bailey, General Counsel

Not that, specifically, though it might be indirectly?
I'm basing it off of one of Gyles Brandreth's yarns where he described how he dealt with abusive constituents when he was a MP.
Dear sir or madam:
Some crackpot has written me an abusive letter, and they've signed your name at the bottom. [...]
Whether he came up with that or adapted it from something prior, I don't know.
If he think Reddit hates his conservative views, he’d explode if he came here
It’s funny when someone mildly conservative shows up here.
He'd be blocked banned defederated very quickly
Defederating an instance because it had one conservative user thta was already banned
It would explode his head
I thought reddit killed third party apps? Or are you paying the $10,000,000 per month or whatever it is?
It just scrapes for data, you can’t log in, post, or comment so no need to use the API
lol nice.
But if you can’t login, how is this angry user going to customize his feed?
The app itself remembers what subs to show you
You can subscribe to subs without logging in.
That's like being mad at the bus because your chosen destination for the day sucked.
hey man i use your app rdx. My only sane reason to browse reddit…..thank you for making it….i wish search suggestions were better ( eg . if specific subredit is not famous , it wont index and show under search suggestions real time as i am typing )
In next update.
What a fucking idiot holy shit.
Hey I have done actual feedback/ issues with the app.
About half the time i try to load a video it fails to open it. This can occur on comments too.
Also sometimes going to a sub reddit and then a post then hitting back button on android will cause it to completely close the app, like the breadcrumbs history is missing so it thinks you just want to quit vs go back to the sub reddit or home.
Thanks a bunch for making it, it does make browsing possible on mobile like 50%of the time :D
I had issues with the video player as well. I solved it by clearing my cache for the app.
Never experienced your other issue though.
Classic right-wing nut "You have to listen and like what I say or it's CeNSOrShIp"
How dare you make a woke app. /s
