Looks like reddit really doesn't want people to use reddit ... if that weren't obvious already

What about if you switch your mobile browser to Desktop Mode? That seems to work for YouTube's fuckery where they pause videos when minimized on mobile.
But still, it's principle. Give them an inch, they'll take a mile. Reddit can burn.

Tiring to see reddits downfall due to corporate greed, just as so many other sites in the past. Honestly surprised old.reddit is still around, seeing how they certainly dont like users using anything but their own inferior app. While spez said it wouldn't go anywhere I have my doubts about that.
This just proves it's not about pricing, just unwillingness to let users choose.

What a bunch of dickheads, I'll stop using reddit entirely if they keep pulling shit like this. Hope Lemmy eats their lunch!
This feels like a huge joke lmao
Reminder that even though reddit tried to remove the compact site, it's still available through https://reddit.com/.i

If I never have to use another Meta service again I'll be very happy. Unfortunately I still have to use WhatsApp because that's all anyone I know uses to communicate...maybe one day.
I had planned to leave reddit by end of June already, and have uninstalled Infinity from my phone a couple of days ago.
But man, this piece of news makes me wish I could do even more to boycott the platform. They are nuts. Enjoy the failure 😉
The mobile browsing experience was a huge shitshow anyway. Randomly refreshing webpage, comments never posting or posting 5 times, expanding comments would work sometimes. They actively nuked it to make people use the reddit app. Fuck them

A few weeks ago, Reddit stopped the one usable mobile interface (.compact). Since then, I stopped visiting Reddit on mobile apart from a few moments of trying out miserable 3rd party apps.
You mean the app that a significant portion of Reddit absolutely hates? Good lord. ~Strawberry
