Finally a page on Reddit that doesn't try ten times to convert you to an app user if you are using a mobile browser.
- n-gauge 9y agoi.reddit.com
- 6nf 9y agoCool, that's the old mobile site. How do I get the desktop version of reddit on my phone?
- colejohnson66 9y agoDoes requesting the desktop site work? That changes your user agent to a desktop browser
- md81544 9y agoIt works for me.
- wickawic 9y agowith the incredibly dark pattern of saying you can 'continue' to the app with a big button, or 'go to the mobile site' with small text below. Of course you are already on the mobile site, so to use this wording is intentionally malicious.
- snailmailman 9y agoSometimes it won’t let you continue at all without logging in, with “go to the mobile site” being replaced with “log into the mobile site” This isn’t consistent though and I only get it maybe once a week. I just give up and check again later.
- samfriedman 9y agoMaybe an A/B test group.
- wcarron 9y agoMy reddit use has significantly dropped off when I was faced with the horror that is their mobile site. That banner is downright offensive.
- bearbearbear 9y agoMy reddit use dropped off completely when they began censoring free speech and claiming it was good for the community.
