That's why i deleted Reddit account twice and I moved to Lemmy, I don't want forcing you to use shitty Reddit app to view Unreviewed content subreddits (lemmy.world)

If you absolutely have to read something from reddit and it throws this, just switch to the desktop site instead of mobile.

Hilarious how their logic completely breaks down when doing that, and they don't even care if you know.

They want you to download the app so they can collect your data and push ads that can't be blocked with browser extensions.

And whenever they want to drop a site-wide ban for any reason, it's easier to punish the whole device instead of fixing issues or pretending that most of the ad viewership doesn't consist of bots.
