I can't get rid of it, it's obnoxious. I've tried filtering the element with my adblocker but it keeps reappearing. As much as I find Reddit useful (unfortunately), especially for information and discussion relating to my country, I will never install their proprietary garbage app on my phone just to use their website.

Oh well. I've used the Internet before Reddit existed, I'm sure I can get used to doing so again.

The technical problem (reddit UX is shit/app is shit) has various solutions. Eg:

The bigger problem of reddit being reddit is ... why Lemmy exists.

Let's each do our best not to turn Lemmy into Reddit.

    Red Reader Dev said they were considering making the app work for Lemmy back before they got an accessibility exemption.

    I kinda wish they didn't get that exemption. It would be the best Lemmy app available.

    Can it download all the articles in a cache for later browsing offline?

    Last I checked, yeah. Try it an see.

    EDIT: Oh you mean Voyager?. Let me check by going into airplane mode. Ok what I see is - it downloads the topmost article / OP post but no comments beyond that. That might be a settings issue tho. So...try it and see still holds as advice.
