This is great but I’m more excited for the custom emojis it looks like they’re finally getting to for 1.10. It’s incredible to me that such a core feature for chat has been moving so glacially for years but maybe they’re now taking it seriously?
As crazy as it sounds, custom emoji/stickers are table stakes for a chat client and the fact that Matrix hasn’t standardized it and Element has kicked PRs on it for over half a decade is really harming adoption. I’ve been running my own Marrix server and it’s already tough trying to get my friends and family adopted. Not supporting the most common fun feature OOTB has made it way more difficult.
If you’re on iOS then Sink It for Reddit and actually makes the mobile website usable again.
Also make sure to go into Reddit’s own settings and disable feed recommendations if you browse the main homepage feed. I’m 99% sure I had this disabled and they just ninja-reenabled it with the update.
