Yeah, it's annoying. I've also seen them block entire subreddits for mobile. E.g. this is what I see on my Android phone when trying to read r/Europe: https://veqz.net/reddit_block_europe.jpg https://veqz.net/reddit_block_europe.jpg («This community is available in the app»).
My two go-to solutions are:
1. Use old.reddit.com/
2. Stop using reddit
- whywhywhywhy 6y agoEmployees of Reddit must have a very low opinion of their users if they think they're going to fall for "This community is available in the app".
- nikanj 6y agoTheir customers i.e. marketers prefer people who fall for things like that
- uniqueid 6y agoAround every twentieth post on the front page of Reddit is a video of someone being punched, kicked, stabbed, or shot. If there are Reddit employees who hold a high opinion of Reddit's users, they should raise their standards.
- xioxox 6y agoThere are also alternative much better apps (e.g. redreader from the F-Droid store for Android).
- gokhan 6y agoThey block on the subreddit's main page, but individual pages are not blocked. I sometimes request desktop site, click on the discussion I want, than go back requesting mobile site. Works well where there's always a long and daily discussion on the sub. I will never download the app just because they do this.
