I actively avoid sites that do this, if I find that I'm on the site enough to Warrant getting the app I'll get the app. I actually didn't realize that Reddit enforced this until about 5 or 6 months ago because they didn't enforce that when I first started using reddit, I had already moved over to third party applications before they implemented the system. Not that it matters much anymore, I uninstalled any apps I had for the platform and blocked it for the house. I'm done with it

I wish I could act so decisively on that, but I still need Reddit access for the wisdom of others on solving issues.

So instead I just make sure I only browse it with Firefox, using uBlock Origin to prevent them from getting ad revenue.

Try to convince them to move here. Maybe eventually they will.

Wisdom is starting to gather here. But in the meantime, there's still the crazy issue with some silly software where I have to Google search and find the only helpful answers are in various Reddit threads
