Has anyone noticed that Reddit’s “Add comment” button is spoken as “A D D comment”? I keep thinking, why is it saying attention deficit disorder? Btw I’m using the mobile desktop version.(self.Blind)

That's what happens when designers insist on using all caps for their button labels. All caps goes against best inclusive design practices, but a lot of developers just won't listen or stop doing it. The all caps confuses screen readers since they can't make the contextual distinction between if the text is an acronym/initialism/abbreviation or just a word. I push back hard on all caps design whenever I come across it for this exact reason.

Use another app like dystopia or bacon reader. I suppose apollo works but I like the former two personally use both dystopia is my very favorite I use it and no reddit issues or weird issues.
