Editor's Review
Dive into the world of Relay, a time-honored Reddit browser first released in 2011! 🕰️ Continuously developed by the same dedicated third-party team for over a decade, Relay offers a premium browsing experience tailored to your needs.
Since September 2023, Relay has adopted a subscription-based model following Reddit's introduction of API access fees for third-party developers. 💰 Choose from various price plans to suit your usage. Over 75% of Relay users enjoy a stunning, ad-free experience for just $1 or $2 per month, complete with a pristine Frontpage featuring only your subscribed subreddits. 🤩
Key Highlights:
- Material You Design: Relay’s design adheres closely to Google's 'Material You' standards, providing a color palette that syncs with your phone, including night mode and an OLED blackout theme. 🎨
- Smooth Animations: Experience animations powered by physical springs, delivering a much smoother feel compared to traditional Android animations. ⚙️
- Simultaneous Loading: Links and comments load together, and you can easily switch between them with a simple swipe. 🔗💬
- Moderator Tools: Comprehensive moderator features include distinguish, sticky posts, ban users, and more. 🛠️
- Interactive Features: Enjoy swipe-to-vote, a rich text editor, and advanced comment navigation. 👍
- Customization: Benefit from multiple account support, subreddit and keyword filtering, and extensive customization options such as font style and left-handed viewing. 🧰
Whether you're a casual 'lurker,' a power user, or a moderator, Relay for Reddit offers a delightful way to stay updated with the latest news and entertainment. 📰🎭
