Can't you just change the browser's ID string and make it look like it's not a mobile browser?
Technology
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
Subcommunities on Beehaw:

Man, he's so professional. He gives answers that I'd expect a very experienced PR person to give, yet he's just a single-man operation developer.
lmao, this shitshow just keeps getting worse and worse. good thing im currently building by community sub list so eventually i never have to look back at that site
Wow... just "Desktop Version" or if that doesn't work quit Reddit. The app is that awful.
It may be separate from the API issue, but the purpose is still the same: to monetize your eyeballs at the expense of everything else.
I stopped using Facebook on mobile and now I only go there occasionally on desktop to read and never post.
Reddit’s getting the same treatment.
I literally just had an instance of opening a nsfw reddit link from a Google search and it informed me that I could only see nsfw posts in the app...
Tapping on a Reddit link from mobile has mostly been pretty similar to this already for me. They have had an issue with DDG mobile browser for ages, refused to show more than a page of content and kept prompting me to "get the app", which didn't seem to recognise my third-party Reddit app... So I just hit the back button. Just recently, oddly, I noticed it had started working, but I'm in the habit of ignoring Reddit links on mobile anyway now so almost never go there whether it works or not.
If you want to lurk Reddit without being tracked, please use Teddit.net, they won't complain about using a mobile browser.
Wow..
Talk about mask off, lmao
A few weeks ago, Reddit stopped the one usable mobile interface (.compact). Since then, I stopped visiting Reddit on mobile apart from a few moments of trying out miserable 3rd party apps.
