Just curious, because typing Reddit in at the end of searches magically makes the exact niche result you need appear, how do you open a post in old Reddit?
Yup, they’re forcing people towards the app because it allows them to collect telemetry data. Your browser walls them off so they can’t data mine your device, but the app gives them full control. It’s why so many services and companies have switched to apps instead of mobile sites; An app allows them to collect and sell your data.
More of their bullshitery. I had the audacity to use my browser to click a reddit link.
Old.reddit still works
As does putting

There are FF addons that can do that for you. Otherwise you have to manually change the www into old.
