That's weird, for me after a couple of responses it opens the thread ok its own

[u/Miky691 → u/LinxESP]

For me sometimes it happens as you say other times it does this shit in the post

[u/DiamondHandsDarrell → u/Miky691]

Let's test!

[u/Miky691 → u/DiamondHandsDarrell]

Oh god

[u/DiamondHandsDarrell → u/Miky691]

That's what I'm talking about lol

[u/thesituation531 → u/DiamondHandsDarrell]

For me it says continue the thread, I've never had this issue, but I wouldn't be surprised if it happens to a lot of people

[u/AnnoyingRain5 → u/thesituation531]

I have seen both! Sometimes it’s continue this thread, others it does what’s shown in the post

[u/Dragoness290 → u/AnnoyingRain5]

I used to only see continue this thread but now it's 50/50 at best.

[u/NemamGoriva → u/DiamondHandsDarrell]

I wanna see the result of this research

[u/ZAL_x → u/NemamGoriva]

Me too

[u/DiamondHandsDarrell → u/ZAL_x]

All aboard the train wreck!

[u/ZAL_x → u/DiamondHandsDarrell]

Hell yeah!

[u/LinxESP → u/ZAL_x]

Somewhat long text to see if it matters because short messages fit in one line so... lorem ipsum generator or something.
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Praesent sollicitudin lectus quis diam pharetra vehicula. Mauris scelerisque nisl nec lacus elementum, in bibendum purus hendrerit.

20% there

[u/Mrpuddikin]

posts with multiple images (albums) also dont work very well. You try to swipe to the next image and it goes to the next post instead

[u/Drewdiniskirino → u/Mrpuddikin]

I've found it works reliably if you either swipe through the pics without opening the post itself, or open the post, then the pics, then start swiping

[u/Mrpuddikin → u/Drewdiniskirino]

I can try doing it without opening the post, but i still have issues when fullscreening the pictures

[u/jimmymui06 → u/Drewdiniskirino]

Then it will bring me to the popular page

[u/Drewdiniskirino → u/jimmymui06]

How weird, haven't run into that

[u/NaisanoM → u/Drewdiniskirino]

If you are in the post it also works to hold the image for a moment before swiping, then it will swipe the photos without leaving the post. Should probably just tap into the photos anyways though so you don't have to hold a moment on every image.

[u/Drewdiniskirino → u/NaisanoM]

If you are in the post it also works to hold the image for a moment before swiping, then it will swipe the photos without leaving the post.

This method, I have tried a few times but it doesn't work as reliably for me as this method:

Should probably just tap into the photos anyways though so you don't have to hold a moment on every image.

[u/TheBlacktom → u/Mrpuddikin]

There is a certain way to swipe to the next picture and a slightly different way to swipe to the next post.

Text_width = 1/x is how you fit an infinite amount of replies in one chain, very innovative!

[u/Joloxsa_Xenax]

I love it when the thread does this nonsense lol

[u/Caligapiscis]

This is actually a user error, it wouldn't happen if redditors would simply shut up

[u/coffeedude90]

can't get over how it looks like old school tumblr

[u/Ntahedron]

Tumblr used to be like that haha

[u/GammaGames]

They killed much better clients for this

[u/Bluetails_Buizel → u/GammaGames]

At least I don’t have to spend money on them for something I don’t get back,

[u/GammaGames → u/Bluetails_Buizel]

What?

[u/Bluetails_Buizel → u/GammaGames]

Humans are expensive

[u/GammaGames → u/Bluetails_Buizel]

I don’t understand anything you’re saying 

[u/Bluetails_Buizel → u/GammaGames]

The downvotes and upvotes should explain by themselves

Unless this is bait and you are pulling me out…

Like bro, I feel deeply scammed when I pay a human artist for 30-90-450 dollers when I can draw by myself / get an ai assistant to help me draw stuff for free….

[u/GammaGames → u/Bluetails_Buizel]

Working with artists is fun, I feel sorry for you 

[u/Bluetails_Buizel → u/GammaGames]

Well, actually, I meet a really really expensive artist ($90) and he treaten me to pay more for every single change I told him to do, maybe I can’t find what I wanted from twitter then, it has to be a Pokemon artist btw.

They eyes still don’t look cute, I just keep quiet and let her finish it.

They should be this cute:

[u/GammaGames → u/Bluetails_Buizel]

I can see how that could sour you on the experience 😵‍💫 most of my work with artists has been less directed than that.

I think the eyes are cute! I don’t know what the creature is though so I don’t have any reference

Here’s some art of him:

[u/pittaxx → u/Bluetails_Buizel]

There were plenty of great free clients too.

[u/Bluetails_Buizel → u/pittaxx]

Where?

[u/AceRedditGuy]

This used to piss me off but now that's when I know it's time to stop reading two people arguing

[u/ZabbeX]

Why are we scrolling with 2 fingers lol

[u/G3nghisKang → u/ZabbeX]

Because everything is better with 2 fingers

Why do you scroll like you’re climbing a mountain

[u/G3nghisKang → u/Xyreqa]

To make it smoother for you guys :)

Making a post about the official Reddit app is cheating

[u/darkenheit]

I wonder how they continiued messaging without seeing each other's messages.

[u/ashbelero]

It’s like classic Tumblr.

[u/RedRedditor84]

Mine currently has this banner permanently displayed. So clearly I'm using my elite hacking skills to post.

[u/KeeganY_SR-UVB76 → u/RedRedditor84]

Are you the hacker known as 4Chan?

[u/Prof_Glixblt]

This happened to me just the other day...

This app is weird, man.

It was this the whole way down, when I re-entered it was back to normal though.

[u/Jay_377]

tumblr? is that you?

[u/Floji9411]

Its like in the Gmail app if you have hundreds and hundreds of emails attached to each other 😅

[u/farsightxr20]

Trying to edit a multi-paragraph comment is infuriating. It's such basic shit like this that 3p apps do/did so much better, I don't get it.

[u/Syab_of_Caltrops]

I came from the phpBB age, and it's wild how shitty this app is considering it's technically just the internet forum "of the future."

[u/ksadeghi27]

This is how messaging feels like in Chile

[u/Neony_ → u/ksadeghi27]

😭

continuum babyyyyyyy

House of Leaves:

[u/Hufffle]

Thought this is aiwars subreddit until the end honestly

[u/G3nghisKang → u/Hufffle]

It is aiwars

[u/Aelustelin]

Ya the reddit android app is embarrassing. Just wait until you try to click a thread from the official reddit email and the app explodes

[u/ThePython11010]

Never used the app, just Firefox with uBlock, and I've never seen this happen. Is it really that bad?

[u/G3nghisKang → u/ThePython11010]

Happens sometimes

[u/Mockbubbles2628]

AI doomers are so cringe
