I hate this app. Website seems to be having issues, so I downloaded this again. Utter garbage. When I leave a gallery, it sends me back to the very beginning. Scroll down to where I left off, come out at the end, back to the top I go. Can't read Top Comments as the text is too small, and zooming in makes scrolling almost impossible. Can't turn my phone sideways, Chive doesn't support horizontal for some reason.

I love the chive, but I have dropped it from my five star rating to a three star because it now is literally overrun with ads and redirects. In one meme list of 29 pics, I had to close my browser 33 times. No other app does that and I have scanned the phone. Please fix this, I do not intend to get a virus from a charity and I don't want to uninstall The chive, but I have to do what I have to do to protect my phone and my personal data. thanks

Definitely getting worse over the last year or so. I hate that the app jumps to the top anytime you leave the app for a split second. Also, developers changed the photo zoom feature and it is infinitely worse. Please stop trying to fix things that are not broken and go back to the old zoom feature.
