I think in addition to already mentioned reasons, part of it was also that various forum software were generally late to the party in regards to responsive layouts and working well on mobile. even these days phpbb isn't great (though at least it does have a responsive layout by default)

Reddit nags me to install their app every time I open a link on Android/iOS, while recent versions of phone looks fine even on my small phone.

    yeah, although I don't think it's the greatest responsive design. page numbers are still quite small, for example. it's better than nothing, though.
