As quoted from the linked post.

It looks like you’re part of one of our experiments. The logged-in mobile web experience is currently unavailable for a portion of users. To access the site you can log on via desktop, the mobile apps, or wait for the experiment to conclude.

This is separate from the API issue. This will actually BLOCK you from even viewing reddit on your phone without using the official app.

    The long and short is that ad companies own the internet now.

    Doing something like that would be feasible until the app developers don’t counter it, and then it devolves into an arms race, but the OS you’re developing for and the browser is owned by an ad company.

    It would be the Manifest V3 situation on steroids.
