So, this clearly can't be the intended use case: I can no longer browse reddit, even logged in, from my Linux PC (x64,chromium browser) without getting a pop-up that fades out half the page, disables my scrollbar and links me to the Apple app store (I have not owned an Apple device since the last iPod touch).
"Reddit app icon Editors’ Choice Get the best of Reddit in the app Personalize your feed, discover more of what you like, and join your favorite communities."
Does anyone know what the reddit team was thinking? Is it the final push to make this a mobile-only social media platform with complete lock-in? Heck, even Meta lets me use a real browser to visit their walled garden.
bizarre.
Are there any real alternatives to Reddit?
