I used to use RiF back in the day when it was still a buggy mess. I don’t even remember when I moved to the native app. I don’t agree with Reddit’s policy update (why I’m here) but I thought the default app was fine for normal browsing. I never had issues with the video player or anything else.
I use Samsung Galaxy devices if that’s relevant.
I was always old.reddit on mobile firefox, set to “forced desktop” browsing. Heard it’s not available any longer, but I’m not going back to check. Tried the official app once, a while ago, and noped straight out.
