User reviews

ZERO PERMISSIONS does exactly what it says what more could you ask for? NOTE: it's "r" and then enter, not typing "/r/". A bit counter-intuitive at first, but I like the decision. ~~~ request to the author: how about make it so it accepts both "/r/" and "r + enter"? Why not?

I love this app! It makes me even more efficient at wasting time. I've clocked myself and I come in at just over 25 subreddits visited in 10 seconds. That's over 2 times my previous average!

You just type in the letter "r", then a space, and then whatever subreddit you want to go to. Works great!
