A comment on Reddit plans for further improvements to web experience.

A huge improvement would have the mobile web site act less hostile. It pushes the app on first arrival; at the bottom there is an "this page looks better in the app" a fat finger width from the next button; comments are un-scrollable randomly; etc. To be honest, it does curb my access of the site so perhaps the status quo benefits my time.

My take too, whenever a website is purposefully shitty to try and get me to download their app, I just use it less. Good way to get less screen time in.

I can only use it in desktop mode on mobile browsers, and it suits my needs.
