Me too. It’s fascinating how that level of incompetence can persist for so long. I can’t believe that someone who is in charge of their visitor numbers hasn’t realized that they are surely missing out on an utterly huge number of visits due to that broken flow.

I haven't checked in a while but on mobile, responding to threads would collapse the text completely on itself in the new layout. The problem persisted for months and I ended up dropping Reddit from my reading list altogether.

Incredible how a billion dollar corporation can be so bad at doing the basics right. Twitter is the same - I still can't play videos on the first try 80% of the time.

Amazon does the same thing with kindle links on iOS. I'm not sure it's incompetence so much as a platform oddity
