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.
Orion lets you send a custom user agent in requests. I’ve found this to generally avoid the “go use our app” dogshit on iOS. It’s also, so far, been nearly perfect at ad blocking in combo with filtering via NextDNS. Kagi has something going, I sure hope they have a revenue plan.
What user agent are you using?
I don’t use Reddit anymore but if absolutely everything goes bad you can pretend to be the Google bot, that works even for Twitter but idk if it will influence your experience to some degree.

Honestly, I have no idea but maybe this site can help. https://explore.whatismybrowser.com/useragents/explore/software_name/googlebot/

In theory none of those sites can afford to block that user agent, maybe there is something else detected (I have no clue) but if they blocked those Google couldn’t list them in their search anymore and that would basically be a death sentence for Reddit!
