Hacker News Reader

The medium nag-badge has got me to do the same thing. i don't click links on HN anymore if they are going to a medium blog.

hopefully we aren't the only ones being annoyed by this, if those badges are effective they aren't going away any time soon.

As someone who's had to implement one of those nagging popups(and argue with marketing 'growth hackers' about it) I can tell they are unfortunately effective, and it's more likely to see more of them in future.

Everyone is annoyed, but many of those who are annoyed will just follow the instructions and increase the metric of whoever wanted those .

There's a toggle to make them stop asking that in the settings, but getting rid of Reddit is better than turning that on, so kudos :)

I've been using RES (Reddit Enhancement Suite) to view reddit on firefox for a long while, didn't realize there was a reddit app.

LinkedIn is coming close for me.
