Every time I try to use reddit when it comes up in search results they slam the door in my face with pop ups demanding I install the app or log in. Can anyone even access enough content on reddit to convince them to join anymore?
I left after they banned Apollo and other apps, but it’s a mess when it shows up in my search results nowadays with the unstoppable app prompt on mobile. I’d I accidentally click a Reddit link while searching, it’s an automatic back for me. They treat their users terribly.
They also have no recovery if your 2FA app was on a phone that physically died. So I can't log in anymore even if I wanted to. This means all my configuration and communities would have to be found and set up on another account.
