lurkur for reddit

I really like the design and simplicity of this Reddit client but even for a lurker it doesn’t offer enough features. No download, no favorites subreddits. Only the ability to view popular and look for subreddits one by one. It’s not very convinient. 2 Stars is for design.

90% of the time the post filters do not work, the only two that are consistent are hot posts and top posts. The hour button does nothing. The option to stop videos from auto playing does nothing. Scrolling through to find a video you are interested in watching quickly becomes a frantic exercise of finding 4 other videos simultaneously playing with sound and trying to mute them, then the app refreshes and sends you clear to the top causing you to lose your scroll progress. This app has crashed almost once a day for the past week. I really enjoy using lurkur but the frustration it is causing me lately has me considering deleting the app. It’s good when it works right, but it almost never works as advertised.

Very well designed, stable, responsive app. No cruft or questionable design elements like is seen on the official Reddit app. Hope that we can eventually get tablet optimization for this great app

If I feel the need to contribute I prefer a computer, so this is precisely what I need for killing time on the go. I have to add that there are some bugs, especially after viewing media. But again, fantastic. I browse quite a bit and haven’t run into the rate limit yet.

love the minimalist look and the no-login (apparently?) feature. Just a straight from a spy thriller novel, CIA look to this.

I do most of my social media browsing on tablets. Can’t stand this skinny little strip in the middle surrounded by huge wasted blank space.

Miles better than the official app or mobile web!

Such a well executed idea. My only complaints are occasionally freeze ups that could be more of a hardware compatibility thing more than anything else. It mostly happens when scrolling or trying to expand a post to view comments You’re doing great work!

Our power is out, but thanks to how this app is designed I can keep up with information, without draining my phone battery like crazy. Love it! Thank you!

No stupid ads, it’s easy enough to stay engaged if you want to comment with all the link options to open in browser. It’s been my replacement for Apollo and way better than using the official app. Highly recommended if you don’t need it for moderating
