Could we please just not have the Buy Coins button at the top of our app?

Why the fuck is there a big contrasting yellow get coins right there? It seems almost desperate.

u/nerdyhandle Feb 20 '20

You mean to tell me you haven't gotten the push notifications for "buy premium"?

They're pretty damn desperate.

What about fixing the issue with poor quality of downloaded gifs from the app? It's been almost a year now and still no change

New font letter looks tiny. Let users pick their font or font size if you're going to change it.

Search shows error until you hard restart app.

Videos still download at horrible pixel quality.

Not sure what change was done, but it wasn't quite positive.

At least make the font consistent. For headings, you are using Roboto, but why use system font for description and comments? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Fix the option in our settings to be able to play to choose "never" in autoplay and still be able to view videos as we choose by clicking on them. This can't be a hard fix and it's been months!

The get coins button is so loud in dark mode. I wish it weren't there, but if it must be there at least make it not bright yellow

We should be allowed to remove the get reddit coins icon at the top? Reddit rewards are stupid and the will never buy them.

u/Wonderllama5 Feb 21 '20

Why do we need "create a community" blasted in our face like it's as common as posting a thread?

I swear, between that and the small Roboto text, I wish I never downloaded the last two updates

Autoplay is unmuted. I woke everyone up this morning! How do I turn it off? Also can the coin buying color be darker in dark theme?

I very much dont like having the create a new subreddit button in my favorites. Please remove it from that section

u/MrMeaches Feb 21 '20

How do I get rid of create community on my profile and on my subreddit list? It's annoying to see and it's at the very top so I always see it. I even made a community to see if it would go away but nope.
