I mean... the official Reddit app was so bad that they had to charge for API access in order to get real market share.
It was already significantly more popular than the good apps by then. The API access thing was to improve numbers further for the IPO. But the app is definitely big enough to have compilation times that can be bothersome. Doesn't mean it's a good app of course.
