As quoted from the linked post.

It looks like you’re part of one of our experiments. The logged-in mobile web experience is currently unavailable for a portion of users. To access the site you can log on via desktop, the mobile apps, or wait for the experiment to conclude.

This is separate from the API issue. This will actually BLOCK you from even viewing reddit on your phone without using the official app.

With behaviour like this, they deserve to burn down. Incredible timing to do this as well.

All the more reason to rebuild the useful communities on a different platform.

This is true. Leave the corporate to themselves and preserve the community.
