I don’t have a Reddit account. Was searching for something related to astrophotography, clicked a link to go to Reddit, not only did I not go to the subreddit post as it dropped me to whatever the fuck the front page is, but it was pretty adamant that I use the app cuz fuck you for using a website I guess.
I browse maybe once a week for a few minutes, but I will never be going back now so thanks to whatever bean counter or engagement coordinator got me to finally quit going.
For now, as far as I know old.reddit.com still works to bypass this
I ended up using that. It worked perfectly fine. I kept it open on my phone for several minutes and I didn’t get that pop up so maybe that will be left alone. I wonder how long it continues to be left alone.
It’s like I told someone else I’m not all that bothered by it so maybe I’m not the targeted market or something, buts it comes across as a pretty big middle finger to its roots of existing as a webpage about webpages more or less. I’ve talked more about Reddit than I really intended to at this point lol
Old will work indefinitely as long as you don’t click a hyperlink. You’ll just be to re-add the old. Subdomain.
