So I’ve noticed that for some reason I can’t reply to messages on here. What am I missing? (self.Blind)

I’m using the app not the site. I’ve signed up for a beta that is supposedly more accessible than this app is, and now I’m waiting for an email for info on how to get the beta. Thanks for your help. 😘😃

HDMILex 2 points 4y ago

I'd be interested in joining this beta. Could you get me in touch with the dev?

Sorry, nine days late but here's the link to join the beta if you aren't already in

BaconReader works well for using reddit

purely_sub [OP] 2 points 4y ago

I may have to try that one.

FiverNZen 3 points 4y ago

Bacon reader is great !! Especially if you put posts in grid view imo :)
Edit: a word

Badassmotherfuckerer 2 points 4y ago

I use Baconreader also and enjoy it! Do you know of any way to collapse a comment chain? OFten times I just want to get to the next parent comment, but I have to swipe through many different responses to a parent comment before getting to the next one.

FiverNZen 1 points 4y ago

Unfortunately I don’t believe there is a way to collapse comment threads. :(

purely_sub [OP] 2 points 4y ago

Thanks for your help. I love this app. It’s really easy to use. 😊 Thanks for telling me about it. How do you get notifications? Because they’re on but I wouldn’t have known I had anything if I didn’t check my email.

rkingett 2 points 4y ago

If you browse with javascript turned off, like I do most of the time, comments don't work. Messages either. I stopped browsing with javascript when, for the millionth time on a book website, FF said a script failed to load. The second I turned off JS, the web was much better and faster. I don't use a lot of apps anyway and, sure, lots of stuff broke, but it made my browsing a lot faster.

But reddit needs javascript, as do all web forms, sadly.

Hey this is same person as entj351 but for the first time I got a notification from bacon reader. I didn’t create a widget. I was so surprised I thought I would say something but it’s not often. So maybe I get some but it’s not consistent.

purely_sub [OP] 1 points 4y ago

That’s weird. Maybe it’s not consistant.

estj317 1 points 4y ago

It isn’t consistent. No. I don’t think I’ve gotten another one since I think it’s the reddit side of things.

purely_sub [OP] 1 points 4y ago

That’s weird. I don’t get it.

estj317 1 points 4y ago

Er. Yeah, maybe it’s accounts based. But this account is much older than my entj351 one, or a little maybe it’s a notification per account limit but that doesn’t exactly make any sense? I got four notification for this account and it is accurate. So yeah, I bet you anything I would still not get notifications for entj351.

purely_sub [OP] 1 points 4y ago

The Read It app with Voiceover. Or at least I was. Now I’m using Bacon Reader and I love it.

purely_sub [OP] 1 points 4y ago

I can’t get you in touch with the developer but here’s the sign up form.

I switched from bacon reader to this beta and its amazing. I hope it comes out soon for everyone.

purely_sub [OP] 1 points 4y ago

I’ll do it if/when it comes out. I like this app. 😊

Using Voiceover with the Read It app. Or at least I was when I made that post. I’m now using Bacon Reader and it works great.

ENTJ351 2 points 4y ago

I hate the reddit app, I decided it wasn’t accessible long ago, I signed up for this new thing too, but I love bacon reader. I moded a sub for a while on here too. I don’t anymore. But bacon reader is wonderful.

I didn’t like how you couldn’t reply to messages directly. You had to recognize their username and send a message that way. I think that’s crazy. I have a hard time remembering people’s usernames. I sent an
Request to sign up for the beta but I doubt I will. This app is awesome.

ENTJ351 1 points 4y ago

I think you can but it’s not accessible. So much isn’t though. Just can’t seem to do it. Reddit made it too. So it should work apparently there is a live chat feature but on the reddit app it’s not accessible and neither can you do it on bacon reader. So.... I signed up for it but is unsure how much I’ll use this or that one. This is my client if I use reddit. I didn’t for a while.

djquik1 2 points 4y ago

It’s actually spelled r e d d i t, just to let you know

purely_sub [OP] 2 points 4y ago

Oops. Thanks. 😊
