- tuwtuwtuwtuw 5y agoI'm on phone and very very familiar with reddit (as in: I enjoy it a bit too much for my own good) . When I visited the link I got the following message: > To view posts in r/InternetIsBeautiful you must continue in Reddit app or log in. These are per-subreddit rules I assume. Other subreddits works fine on phone without logging on. Edit: Here is some thread about it: https://www.reddit.com/r/ModSupport/comments/epsv9m/apparently_mobile_web_users_now_have_to_login/ https://www.reddit.com/r/ModSupport/comments/epsv9m/apparent... So it appears to be dependent on my location as well. Not my cup of "internet is beautiful".
- kbenson 5y agoIt's weird that this "experiment" as the reddit admin called it is still going in over a year later. I wonder if the subreddit mods requested it or have no say in it or what.
- tuwtuwtuwtuw 5y agoI doubt subreddit mods _wanted_ this behavior. This is akin to "Sorry this site only works in Internet Explorer 5" in my view.
- kbenson 5y agoYou would think that, but a year is a long time for an experiment to run. I suspect they could have asked reddit to move their experiment elsewhere at this point if they cared and it's actually an experiment still. Otherwise, it's not an experiment because there is no end, and it's just special behavior applied to one subreddit in perpetuity. You can still get data from that, but it's disingenuous to present it as an experiment (it could entirely be reddit being weird. I'd believe that as wel).
