How can I neutralize this annoying "use the app" popup on Reddit while using Firefox Android mobile?

You can click continue, at least until Reddit blocks Mobile browsers entirely, use a third party app, at least until Reddit kills them off, or stop using Reddit.
Given the behaviour of apps, I think I will use only websites from now on.
Does Firefox have a fine grained way to kill these scripts, or is disabling JavaScript for all websites the only option ?
You can disable JS per site with an add-on. For example, uBlock origin works on mobile Firefox on Android, and you can use it disable JavaScript on any domain you want without impacting others.
Will expanding collapsed comments still work with JavaScript disabled ? What about commenting and voting ?
With noscript add on you can pick which scripts you allow to run
They lock mobile browsers entirely for NSFW subs unless you are logged in.
Fuck Reddit
