Mine is waiting till a few apps start to hit the App Store before she tries it. I think once a handful of the more polished apps start to make it out of their test flights, we’ll start to see another decent sized migration over here.
Fortunately I don’t think you’ll have to wait too long. I’ve been using Memmy in Test Flight since really early builds and it’s extremely impressive how mature and feature rich this app has gotten. The last update (which are usually daily) made themes customizable to the point where I basically have the app looking like how I had Apollo customized. It’s close to being fully reviewed and approved for the App Store.
Yeah you often hear how people prefer Old Reddit over New Reddit, but for people who are first trying it out, New Reddit is much more accessible. I joined Reddit in 2013 and there was definitely a learning curve to it.
Maybe it was because I came from a world of Fark/Slashdot/Newgrounds; but “website that is a list of things users submitted to it that may or may not interest me” was a pretty familiar format to me. Old Reddit was still my go-to until June 12th.
“Feed me full content as I scroll” is too annoying. It makes me watch and see things I have no interest in. It’s junk, it’s clutter. Sell me with a headline and a thumbnail sure, but let me decide from there, thanks.

Be civil and nice.
Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

To be fair, neither Reddit was intuitive when I first started using it.

But did you show her the beans?
She wanted him to spill the beans. We don’t do that here.
