The swipe ads for digitalocean on this are tremendously obnoxious as they break back and forward swiping on Safari on iPhone. That’s not okay, don’t do this. But hey, it’s a way to guarantee that you’ll annoy people enough to not use it.

Agreed. This is a new kind of obnoxious I haven’t seen before. Another app/service I simply won’t use on the basis of these attempted ads.

While I agree that the UX WAS obnoxious prior to the fix below, it was not deliberate and has been fixed.

Sorry to tell you, but once you post it on Reddit, the content is no longer yours. Not your content, not your choice.

I am still an individual in this world with rights no matter how much "the internet" feels that isn't true. Reference the current legislation being put in place around the world regarding privacy as proof that I am not in the minority here. Also it did work exactly like that since reddit allowed me to delete said content and and chose to stop posting or interacting with reddit. Could there be a copy my reddit history…

FWIW you can "delete" the content from public view. however, reddit keeps the data internally and can sell the data. so if the intent is to block the public view that works but if it's to block reddit from using your content it does nothing.

Noted. Will address asap! Thanks.

Much better now :)

Thanks for taking that onboard and resolving it.

On iOS if I swipe from the left I just get a white panel sliding out from the left. It should go back. (There’s nothing in the panel, maybe that’s where there was previously an ad?)

Thanks for the additional information. I've updated/closed the GitHub issue below and confirmed the fix. https://github.com/june07/clippings-frontend/issues/1 Hope you understand that this was an unknown condition prior to your helping out (I'm on Android where back navigation was unaffected) and certainly not a deliberate attempt at bad UX just to push a DO ad. Again, thank you for the valuable feedback as it helped…

Nice.
