I use RSS to fetch reddit posts for subs that are not active in Lemmy.

Sometimes I need to read the comments so I’d view the post from safari. Today, I tried like 3 post and when click on view post, it would redirect me to the App Store.

When I decided to screenshot the page to make this post, it did show the post but would refuse like 1 out of 5 times.

    @deleted @justlookingfordragon most people will never make a Reddit account. That’s the typical Reddit user. Those folks will never install the Reddit app.

    When Reddit makes a google search like “bicycle review reddit” stop working a huge part of Reddit’s utility will stop existing.

    I don’t think spez will rate limit google bots until after Reddit’s IPO.

      Correct.

      Regardless of blocking google bots, google would lower their ranking once the bounce rate increases.
