Did I miss something? Or just a joke about the future of reddit because obviously they will go for it at some point.
When I go to a subreddit a popup appears over similar to those news sites asking me to either login or open in app. So it's kinda the present
That's for NSFW communities. Since the protests, quite a lot of communities are still marked as NSFW, even if they're not, in reality.
If you’re on mobile it will happen when you just search a question on google, no matter the subreddit
Firstly, why are you using Google? Secondly, you must be doing something else wrong because I have never seen that outside of NSFW stuff. The only time I go to reddit is on mobile via the browser when I'm searching for something, and I'm not logged into an account.
Are you under the impression you're talking to your 8 yr old?
That’s great that it doesn’t happen for you. For me, any time I end up on Reddit in a browser on iPhone, it gives the obnoxious “open in app or continue in browser” popup.
I use private mode in safari though, maybe it’s not saving a cookie or something.
That does not mean you need to log in. If you press continue it'll go to the website.
I know that. I’m talking about the shitty popup.
