I don't have Amazon Prime (nor am I in the US) yet use Aliexpress perfectly fine on my mobile phone without using an app. Frankly, I don't understand how the two is related at all?
- coldtea 2mo agoBoth are web stores. Both have websites AND apps. They are compared / contrasted. Nobody is saying one is concretely related to the other.
- doubled112 2mo agoAliExpress won't allow me to open most pages in the account section on my iPhone. Instead I get a page telling me to install the app. While browsing, there are also popups offering the app approximately every third link I click. Some of them are telling me to install the app. Unless the situation has changed recently, it's not perfectly fine, it is unusable on purpose.
- emctech 2mo agoAE website on mobile is terrible, they basically force you to use the app. I exclusively use the website on my PC
- whstl 2mo agoSo they're pulling a Reddit, basically. "The app is great because the website is heavily degraded".
- Ntrails 2mo agoI just request the desktop site, it's fine
- deepsun 2mo agoReddit is fine, just a small popup at the bottom. Facebook kn the other hand turned off most functions on mobile, e.g. chat. Good thing though if you don't use the chat long enough, friends start using other means of communication.
- pudgywalsh 2mo agoReddit is NOT FINE. They throw up full page modals now telling you to continue in the app.
- embedding-shape 2mo agoSoon we'll realize that the experience of using reddit (and other mainstream social media) differs a lot based on what country you're in, and sometimes even the state. For example, seemingly a bunch of places in Europe/elsewhere has disabled old.reddit.com unless you're logged in, but seemingly a bunch of people in other places can use it just fine. I'm sure what both of you are seeing is both correct, there is just something changing the experience that gets served to each of you.

- Lio 2mo agoI think it’s a push for either more tracking through login or to push people to more addictive features like endless scrolling and autoplaying videos.
