I know it is familiar, and due to the heavy discussion in the recent days, it is especially hard to circumvent, but please take a look at the links you click on to prevent giving traffic to Reddit as much as possible. Just a small reminder!

Great idea! Thinking one step ahead, I Blocked Reddit via Pihole and NextDNS and uninstalled my apps.

It's literally muscle memory to click the Reddit app just randomly (tbh, I think it's a full fledged addiction, I derive no real benefit just constantly click it). I could install the progressive web app of my instance in the same spot, but tbh I don't fully like the idea of PWAs (i.e. if you're going to be an app be an app, if you're going to be a mobile website be a mobile website).

I do find it a little hypocritical when people are constantly posting Reddit links.
