What's difficult is reading threads, or more broadly replies. But single posts? Absolutely fine, in fact it's about the only thing that is totally functional without being logged in.

As others have said, this is broken in some contexts too. I also get blocked by a popup on mobile.

I only get "See this post in the app" with "Use the app to view all comments and discover more posts." with only an "Open X" button in that dialogue.

There is no button to disable this. I can only see the text by using "Page Zoom" buttons on my phone, so it's really not worth it.

  • If you are on iOS Safari (maybe it does this on Android too, I don’t have an Android phone to check) have you:

    * Looked at the top-right corner of that popup.

    * Then, scan upwards from that corner, maybe 1cm above it

    That’s where the x to close it is, for me. I’m not sure if it is screen specific or what, if it is a bug, etc. It doesn’t seem like a UI anyone would build intentionally but then, who knows?

Oh, weird. I didn’t think there was a way to get rid of the pop-over that hides the post on iOS Safari. But it turns out that there’s a button to close it, just, completely disconnected from the pop-over and hanging out with a bunch of unrelated UI.
