Reddit's mobile team is 200 people. Yet @christianselig was able to write a much better Reddit client entirely on his own. Makes you wonder…

Building Reddit’s iOS and Android app

Reddit’s mobile engineers share how they completely rebuilt the iOS and Android app, introducing a new core tech stack, modern architecture, and improved testing strategies at massive scale.

@overcastfm
When you return to Overcast after the device has automatically changed from dark mode to light mode, the show notes don’t adjust correctly for the mode.
@siracusa I was on the TestFlight for Hyperspace, and whilst on it I "bought" the lifetime unlock.
I just installed 1.0.2 from the App Store (Portugal) and I was able to reclaim without paying, and I noticed that it says ā€œFull functionality is unlocked foreverā€, which seems wrong? I also see this in the settings window:
@siracusa when trying to purchase anything in I am told that my account is not valid for the US app store (despite the prices showing in Euros). When I try to switch stores it fails. This might be a TestFlight issue, but I'm pretty sure I've been able purchase items in TestFlight apps before without this issue. My App Store account is a Portuguese one.
Looks like @overcastfm is suffering from the SwiftUI ScrollView bug that always selects an item in the ScrollView even if all you want to do is scroll. It’s really annoying, as you can’t scroll the chapter / show notes view without selecting chapter and losing your place. Fortunately the ā€œGo backā€ option exists.

If you don’t like what your employer is doing, resign and find another job. This kind of circus is absurd 🤔
