That's what I was going to say. Nowadays I only end up on Reddit when a search points there, and only when all other options have led nowhere.
Every time the Reddit browser experience is there to remind me why this is the last place I check.
Same here, and also only if the answer is important to me. If it doesn’t really matter whether I learn the answer, I’ll just move on. This could decimate their casual educational value, which used to be their greatest asset.
They either have a revenue stream more valuable than that or this is a comically stupid thing to do.
If on iOS you can use the free Sink it for Reddit Safari extension to remove all of the use the app garbage and make the mobile site useful. They make an extension for Twitter/X as well.
For the times I can only get an answer there it makes it decent.
