Social network Reddit recently began blocking mobile visitors to its website while pushing them to download the official Reddit app, and it's fair to say that the move is not going down well with users. If you visit reddit.com on your iPhone today, you may see a new popup that can't be dismissed, asking you to "get the app to keep using Reddit".
I say there’s no reason to be hostile to someone still on Reddit. I check here first for most things, but there are many communities whose presence here is either anemic or nonexistent.
Then again, Reddit has always been a desktop first experience for me. I pretty much only use old.reddit.com, and my line in the sand will probably be when it dies.
That was my line in the sand until I was banned for liking a comment and not told which comment it was.
Probably the one about Luigi as it’s been documented Reddit is banning people just for upvoting those.
Possibly, but the AI they’ve got doing it is just bad. Even liking an innocuous comment like “you’re killing it, dude” is apparently enough to get banned.
