Yeah, Reddit's approach to making so difficult to access the mobile on a whim, especially in an ephemeral browser, is a straight up UX dark pattern. I use Reddit less on mobile because of it...

I want to stay in the browser where I have things like ad blockers and can open a bunch of tabs at once and bounce around easily, etc.
