Some Reddit users have noticed that they can’t sign-in to their accounts anymore on mobile, as the option to do so has been removed for them. Reddit has made it difficult in the past for users to access the site on mobile in browsers. The company’s main intention is to get users to use the official Reddit application instead.

    as in, you don’t object to them being shut down by reddit? if that’s the case, how come? i understand your experience with them was not the best but many other users have been very happy to use 3rd party apps in recent years, and having them forcibly removed by reddit has been pretty upsetting for many of us.

    if that is not the case, than sorry for assuming :)

      If you’re not aware, social media has a user agreement. It is a contract imposed on the user. And Reddit (oddly enough) acts within that agreement. Right now, Lemmy is stapled with the idea of “Reddit is down”(no), and then what happens?
