That graphic says mobile, not app. I certainly use the browser to look at Reddit on my phone all the time and have never installed the app.

So to answer your question, my overall point is that a redditor's experiences are generally doubly enshittified before they actually get to the content. First via their ad tracking and privacy-leaking-as-default mobile device, and second via their small 4" screen and just as horrible reddit app. They dismiss these two transparent enshittifiers as "just part of the dead Internet" when it's clearly not.
