Forcing the Reddit App Down Your Throat…

So, browsing Reddit on your mobile, usually from Google search results, is now an exercise in frustration – Reddit will freeze your screen and force you to jump to their app.

I do not like using the app. If I can use a normal browser to navigate, there is no valid technical reason I must use your app.

So, Fennec browser, complete with uBlock Origin, to the rescue (because Chrome just sucks)!

Add the following to the “My filters”:

! Remove Reddit mobile app wall popup
www.reddit.com##.rpl-bottom-sheet
www.reddit.com##+js(remove-class, rpl-scroll-lock, body, stay)
www.reddit.com##+js(remove-class, scroll-is-blocked, body, stay)
www.reddit.com##+js(prevent-addEventListener, touchmove)

Problem fixed.
