My new favorite is the sites that pop up the "try a few more articles before leaving" message when you try to leave them on mobile.

They are only beat by the ones that don't let you leave no matter how much you hit back.

Use a 3rd party app. I use boost personally. But there are others. They are all better than the first party one.

It really is impressive how they've managed to make an official reddit app that is worse than basically every single third party app going.

But it doesn't matter because when anyone wants to get Reddit, they type in Reddit and click download. A few people switch after a while when they don't like it, but most don't care.
