Hello everyone! I am a sighted person who is working on a social media app for blind people so I want to know the problems that face blind people on using Twitter and Reddit to try to fix them on our app.
please give me feedback if you are interested. Thank you

we don't, there are already apps that make the experience better.

I don't use Twitter at all, and only use reddit on the desktop because I hate the blind mobile experience.
My biggest issues with reddit are not being able to tell comment relationships since I cannot see indentation, and not being able to tell whether I've upvoted a comment without using VoiceOver's image description to check whether the button is orange or gray. Not sure whether the new layout fixes any of these issues, but I'm still on the old layout which I find to be more comfortable.
In any case I'm always wary of providing my credentials to third-party applications.
