Reddit would’ve been better off buying out the most profitable/popular third party app, making minor housekeeping changes (app name, app logo, etc) and moving on. Instead they show themselves in the foot a little.
I agree, assuming their goal was to have an app that appeals to users. Possibly the one they have appeals to advertisers, although even advertisers probably prefer an app people use willingly.
They already did that with Alien Blue, except for the part about using the app’s features. Reddit clearly has zero desire to make a great app; their priorities lie elsewhere.

They bought Alien Blue but then decided to write new apps from scratch.
