Honestly, I would even use the normal reddit website on my smartphone if they wouldn't aggressively try to make it as annoying as possible.
I saw a thread on Reddit about a script you can put into uBlock on Firefox that blocks the obnoxious "please oh please oh please download Reddit mobile" pop-ups
In theory, that would be possible, yes. But it is rather ... annoying and I'm sure reddit will break it again. Hmm. But thank you!
That is the problem with that sorta workaround, it only works so long as reddit doesn't find a way to bypass it, leading to an eternal game of wack-a-mole for both sides until one side finally gives up
And I for one am more than happy to give up on reddit
Completely giving up on reddit is something I would like to avoid as of now. Years of collected karma ... :-) (and whisky reviews - r/Scotch has not made it here just yet).
Brave can block those "Switch to app" notices natively too.
