What it says on the tin, really. I think this is going to be an issue when they get around to the smaller communities… It’s going to suck majorly, as most people’s default will remain with reddit for community discussion like this…

I do normally use RiF on my phone – but yeah, mostly I am using my PC. For me it is mostly the principle also. Especially the way it seems likely to affect blind and visually impaired users, but also even just the overreach and disregard of the userbase who creates any value the site has. :/
Honestly, for me it’s not so much what they did, but rather how they went about it. To clarify, them wanting people to use the official app is fair enough, but instead of market economy, i.e. providing the superior product, they went gilded age capitalism and try to hulk smash the competition, and that’s just not on for me.
I agree, although also I think their official app is unpleasant to use on purpose, because it’s designed to put ads in front of users, not to actually allow users to see content.
Having used the app exactly once several years ago, I can’t speak to that, but I can see that…
