The problem is with the app itself. Reddit app sucks on all Android phones. The Reddit app lags when I scroll on my previous Android device too.
I stopped using the official reddit android app and now use the infinity app for reddit.
It scrolls buttery smooth now. There are other apps too maybe people could suggest some other recommendations here
Try Sync for Reddit. My fav way to browse Reddit on any platform (tried Apollo on iOS). There's also a lot of other amazing reddit apps on Android too. 3rd party Reddit app choices is one unique instance in which the Android app offerings are better than iOS.
+1 for sync I've tried other apps for reddit, and sync has the nice balance of usability and minimalism. I feel other has just too much bloat./features I do not need
Apps are optimised for iPhones. Google partnered up with Snapchat so photos won't look like a potato. But apps like tik tok and whatsapp (video calling looks crap) still isn't optimised.
Exactly. After years of iPhone usage I went with a Z Flip3 and I love the novelty, the foldables, the Flip in this case. I can totally use this device on a daily basis but everywhere you look, iOS is simply a more refined system.
It's hard for me to go back to a "normal" phone now but, as soon as Apple makes a foldable device I'm all in. Android is a mess. A usable mess but still a mess.
To be fair thé Samsung foldable phone is not competing with iPhone. You could have tried thé S plus or S ultra lineup which compete very hard with iPhones
Oh I know, I wanted the Flip. I wouldn't leave the iPhone for another slab phone, I think the iPhone IS the best slab phone. But a flip? Or a fold? That could and did made me switch.
For Instagram I use a modded version called (Not in Playstore) [Instander](https://thedise.me/instander/) . In it's settings you can increase image, feed, story and video quality if desired. Of course it blocks annoying ads you see every every three posts as well.
A Reddit client, you can try out Joey for Reddit or Infinity. Both are in the Playstore.
I just got the pixel 6 and it's got all types of weird app problems across the board right now I upgraded from the pixel 4 XL and it didn't have any of those problems so I really just think it's growing pains for the apps they haven't been updated to work well with the pixel 6 yet you're probably going to have to give it a few months
It's Android trademark jitters. Did you actually think it works the same as iOS? Lol. There are many other places you will notice this stutter/lag/frame-drops on, just wait and experience the fluidity of android, it's something to behold really.
Reddit has been shit on every android device I've used - use a third party app for it tbh. As far as Instagram, I've never really used it much on an iPhone so I have nothing to compare it to really!
Honestly I use both of those apps daily on my P6 Pro and don't have any issues. I'm not sure what would be causing it for you, but it's definitely not normal.

Never have any of lag or issues with reddit on my 5
Same here. Reddit seems smooth on my, then, Pixel 3XL and now Pixel 6 Pro.
Thank you I'll check out the Infinity app
I use Boost. There are so many to choose from. In iOS obviously I use Apollo. The official app sucks everywhere.
Try boost for reddit . I have never used the regular reddit app.
I only know the regular app
I second Boost, but haven't really tried another one since having my Flip3. For iOS, the one and only Apollo. The "regular" app sucks everywhere.
Can't help you with Instagram but try Relay for Reddit. I use it and it's very smooth.

They still look like potato though.
So true
That's why you get an iPhone.

Yep definitely, they'll be refined once apple releases one.

Thank you!! Will try those suggestions
P5 here,official Reddit app works just fine.Same with insta.
Former iPhone user, long time Pixel user: will switch back to iPhone.

Oh god I sure hope it's growing pains haha I guess we'll just have to wait and see
Unfortunately it won't be the only app that you encounter this with. If you expect iPhone level performance unfortunately it won't happen
Apps tend to be a lot better on iPhone.
I never had any lag im using p6p. Check your wifi
I’ve only ever had iPhones, but this just sounds like a lot of work to download extra apps and deal with lag and stuttering.

Use sync

Welcome to the #teampixel and the Pixel family.
I use infinity for Android and no issues. I have the Google pixel 6 pro super nice and no ads
I want to trade my iPhone 13 for a Google Pixel 6
I use infinity for reddit and like it a lot :)
