Here's an interesting ARS article regarding the Reddit fiasco, but from the moderators' perspective.

Exactly! I was a bit on the fence in the beginning, figured I would survive the demise of baconreader and use the web. Then they played the game with blocking the mobile browser, restoring deleted comments and resubbing, which is bonkers. Now with the latest news, there is no way for me to support this company. After 13 years I am done.

Are they really blocking the mobile browser? I think I may missed this bit of news.

The comment I saw said it was experimental iirc.

With all the buzz this week I wouldn't be surprised if they try to force everyone to the app eventually.

Thanks! Just terrible, can’t recall last time a social media platform fumbled this bad.
