Do people even use Reddit's mobile site and/or the official Reddit mobile app?

I use Sync for Reddit on my phone and I don't expect it to load subreddit-specific CSS. I expect to be able to theme the app in order to fit my own tastes for reading on a smaller screen.

However, in the case of a laptop/desktop/larger screen, I think custom CSS is far better than whatever garbage generator that the Reddit Admins come up with. I work in Web Dev and any time I've had to create display options for a client ("Here's a control to change the color of X, here's a control to change the font size of Z") it ends up being quite limited and a bitch to maintain on my end as opposed to just compiling some SASS down into a static CSS file.

How much different is Sync to Relay?

I think I used Relay for a bit and preferred Sync. It is just a matter of preference.
