I think old Reddit was the older style, but also less scripts/tracking running on the pages.
idk if a script blocker would work on the nag. On my desktop I was trying to view something and used ublock origin element picker to block the nag and allow me to view the site, but I can’t seem to get it to work properly on mobile (even on desktop mode) it seems to be disabling ublock from working.
i tried to block it on mobile, but reddit seems to be able to use other forms to block you. like hiding the comments behind a login wall. how long will the apps that reads reddit will be affected?
No idea, but I’m guessing a script blocker will update or release an option to block them when it’s obvious to then what way it’s being blocked. An app could just easily implement it I guess, if they wanted.
Login wall could be unblocked by unlock initially, but it seems to be more difficult on mobile.
yea i tried the element picker/zap on ublock, reddit just hides the comments. i had to use old reddit redirect extension so i wouldnt get the annoying popups, but its matter of time before old reddit goes.
I have managed to block them on desktop Librewolf/Firefox using element blocker. So I think (hope) I can export my custom blocks and import them to Fennec/Firefox on phone.
