    Harder? What? Ad blocking hasn’t changed at all. Just use a local vpn based blocker like Ad Guard, like a normal person. Stop making this weird.

      … And use what app to browse it on my phone? I’m not using their trash official app and I’m not using a phone web browser.

          Amazing specificity. It’s almost like you won’t give specifics because you don’t know.

              Yep, that’s what I said. Not a specific app. So you don’t actually have an app in mind do you? I’m not reading a bunch of reddit threads to back your claim for you. You are simply wrong until you back your claim. I mean you can simply tell me what app you use right? The app that’s free and ad free when using your suggested VPN?

                Huh? My claim is that ad blocking hasn’t changed from before or after the API stuff. What Reddit app you use - what method of accessing Reddit you use is completely irrelevant to the topic of blocking ads.

                They’re ALL ad free when you block ads, you numpty.

                I’m not sure if you’re straw manning me, red herring me, are drunk or just completely retarded, but in any case - you’re dumb as fuck.

                  And my claim is that many mobile phone users who used 3rd party apps did not even need a separate ad blocking solution, the apps already blocked them. Thus your claim that “ad blocking has not changed” is wrong.

                  The ads were blocked from me before, and the app I used is no longer available. That is the definition of changed for my use case. Maybe understand that not everyone uses things the way you use things, you condescending windbag.

                    If the app changed for you… That is completely irrelevant to the topic of ad revenue. Maybe you responded to the wrong person. Maybe you responded to the wrong post.

                    But changing Reddit apps doesn’t have anything to do with giving Reddit ad revenue.

                    To be clear: it didn’t matter if the app you used before didn’t serve ads, since you should be using an ad blocking service making the entire topic (the OP and whatever insanity you’re dribbling) irrelevant and non-existent.
