Opened reddit (regular, not old) in chrome this morning and im seeing non-dismissable login page.

is this correct - reddit now fully login gated? wtf

    @laurenceOfSuburbia it seems they did (old Reddit too)

    I just got this today and didn’t realize it’s been an issue people been having for two weeks.

    thank god I have ublock origin so I can bypass this shit but frankly maybe it’s about time everyone just moved to lemmy or back to smaller forums.

        People will not pay one penny for things so that would be the immediate death of the entire operation.

        @naught101 i mean when that happens, for sure Reddit will die off

        they might have gotten away with it during their api restrictions a few years back but this one will have everyone peeped off for sure

        at least that’s my hope anyway

      I think I really got into lemmy finally.
      Photon client https://phtn.app/ for desktop, boost for lemmy on mobile - works really fucking good.
      No ads, I can finally use a normal android app too, have not been able to for reddit since they shut down rif.
