Please note this is just a beta and there are going to be bugs, but it works and it works nicely. Have fun.

It's a nice app mostly but there's a few things stopping me from loving it currently

No lifetime license, I refuse to use a subscription service
list view mode doesn't have the option to have buttons enabled and always showing
can't disable auto hide of comment actions
No way to hide viewed posts
can't highlight and copy text from a comment It just hides content instead (like why?) Only option is to copy all text from a comment but I don't want to copy all just a small selection...
No option for top bar, only bottom and side

You can hide viewed posts, there's a button for it. Click the 3 dots in the top right and it's there.

You can highlight and copy text from a comment, tap the comment, 3 dots, select text.

Not sure if the swipe to hide is still available. That was a godsend in Reddit days.

Still available! You can find them at: Settings->Post options->Swipe actions

Personally I keep upvote/downvote as the first two swipe actions, third as the save post.

Edit: pro-tip I just found after seeing someone else do it: long press on a setting in sync will copy a link to that setting. And you can paste it in a comment as such:

Settings shortcut: Post options > Swipe to hide
