Reddit Tests Blocking Mobile Web to Force App Downloads

The dominos continue to fall. It seems like the line keeps moving further and further away from what's best for users.

Before some of these companies would listen, but will they now?

What's the best way to show our disagreement?

Use forums. They aren't locked down. For example, post on https://discuss.privacyguides.net, instead of reddit[.]com/r/privacy.

If you can find them, these forums often have much better content with less censorship and less slop.

The problem seems to me that search engines love Reddit threads more than anything else. And they often are the most useful content that a search engine brings up. Not sure what to do about that.

I recommend the Fulguris web browser, which is not only generally faster and less resource intensive than Chrome, it also supports always reporting as a desktop browser, so you get the real web page.

It's always been interesting to me that Reddit simply rate-limits Tor users, but blocks comercial VPN users. Not a lot of sites that go that route.

Everything's upsidedownface.
