As quoted from the linked post.

It looks like you’re part of one of our experiments. The logged-in mobile web experience is currently unavailable for a portion of users. To access the site you can log on via desktop, the mobile apps, or wait for the experiment to conclude.

This is separate from the API issue. This will actually BLOCK you from even viewing reddit on your phone without using the official app.

    Reddit will survive. Boycotts don’t work anymore because people can never organize enough to beat out the massive reach of entrenched monopolies anymore.

      The sad part about this whole reddit story, is that it will probably lose a lot of niche communities and quality content, and keep low-effort memes and the same ask me anythings over and over again, but with people watching ads and them making money. I hope the people that create/want quality content move on to better sites instead of just giving up.

      Next thing they will add is subway surfer and text to speech, with ads in between. That’s probably their dream scenario.
