Comment on Reddit is removing ability to opt out of ad personalization based on your activity on the platform
Contort3860@links.hackliberty.org 8 months agoFirefox with uBlock origin and AdAway on Android would probably make Reddit mobile less shit. Pi-hole on your home network. NextDNS or AdGuard DNS on every device. If you’re still seeing ads I don’t know what to tell you. It’s becoming easier every day to have multiple layers of blocking.

Prior to the API change when I was still a Reddit user, and when accessing from mobile, I would use Firefox on Android with uBlock. Using the default mobile web UI was still pretty miserable. Every reddit link would put a giant popover “This looks better in the Reddit app! Do you want to download the app or continue in the browser”. Every. damn. time.
The only saving grace, which made for a pretty good experience was the “.compact” web UI, but then Reddit killed that around the same time. With the only option to use Reddit with the Reddit app was easy to simply stop using Reddit on mobile. Shortly after the API changes meant stopping Reddit use altogether.
