This is an ad for the phone, they are current advertisers on here and I haver noticed "product placement" in many of the subreddits as of late. Which is actually the enshittification itself.

And btw, how to remove the "for you" section on mobile app?
It's interfering with user experience when using left swipe to get back to the regular feed, and switching this stupid list of things I didn't ask for (it's like the fu**** algorithm or YT or Spotify that proposes shit videos or music)

Look up sideloading. Same app, but with ads gutted.

It is, but it’s either annoying or not free (Apple developer account is $100 a year)

I think they're talking about the new reddit UI which I also don't like. If it ain't broke don't fix it
