100% agree and anyone who says otherwise has either never browsed Reddit on Safari on an iPhone or is being disingenuous.

The website is the epitome of scum and pulls every single annoying trick in the book to try and get you to download the damn app.

While blaming Reddit is fair, it is made a lot worse by the closed nature of iOS and Safari.

It seems counter-intuitive that both Reddit and Apple are highly successful companies.

How is it apples fault that reddit made these terrible decisions to their own mobile website? The iPhone has been around for over a decade and the mobile reddit website becoming useless and terrible is only a recent phenomenon.

I checked again on the Brave browser i use on Android and if you are logged in then Reddit is ok. If you don't login, then it doesn't let you view the post.
