Downvote all you want, but I like scrolling Imgur on the iPad. The last two app updates are just stupid. Images don’t scale with screen orientation, so you have to keep the iPad in portrait or simply mss 66% of the field of view of images and clips. The app used to be able to scale between these two orientations.
The last update introduced a new hovering menu at the top of the screen.

You can’t move it around. Reading the titles is half the fun. I’m not a professional, but it looks to me that this should have come up during development. It is pretty much impossible to miss…Given the issue, I’m afraid she will never read my title.

Stop updating 😆

Why don't you just use the site if you're using the Ipad? That would probably be a smoother experience.

Updates on crapple have always tended to piss those users off, but they usually have to happen because they constantly futz with their OS to keep people from figuring things out like how to connect imessage to android apps

On the somewhat plus side, I don’t have to worry about accidentally leaving usersub as that new bar covers up the top navigation menu.

Heya @OP 👋 We are aware of this issue, but thank you for the flag. It is unfortunately caused by an iOS update for iPad displays (not our update) We are hoping to address this in our next iOS release. Apologies for any ongoing inconvenience of confusion this may cause in the meantime.

PS: scaling images when changing from portrait to landscape is the bigger issue…

It is annoying as hell this is what happens when corporations don’t use their own services or products they either haven’t got a fucking clue or they just don’t care

I don’t care. Hoped it would attract mods to take a look

You don't need to merge if you only use the master branch.

Every update is worse. That's the thing that gets me. Not just new bugs either, every update somehow makes every already existing bug worse. So what's the fucking point of the updates?!

every service that starts out with a slick, clean design inevitably has to fuck it up, because they have to be seen changing shit to make

people think shits being done, and the easiest thing to change for that is the UI... and its always a negative, degraded experience compared
