Reddit has the worst mobile site i've ever seen, with constant pop-ups that make the site basically unusable. Sometimes a good idea and first to the market is better than good execution.

Yeah, their mobile website isn't very good, neither is their app.

IMHO the only way to use Reddit on a mobile device is to request the desktop site. However, I recently opted into their new user profile thing which is completely broken on mobile (and you can't opt-out).

i.reddit.com is bare-bones and buggy, but it's fast.

Sometimes I wonder whether some sites intentionally downgrade their mobile site to push people to download their app. Certainly seems that way with reddit. Anyway, at least i.reddit.com still exists, albeit in the background like some kind of insider rumor.

Add `.compact` to the end of any URL on reddit and that's the best mobile mode. Super fast.

Get Sync for Reddit and you'll even stop using their Desktop website.

You can use the desktop site on mobile which if you combine with mobile Firefox's "switch to new tab" makes reading reddit on mobile not suck.

It's the JS. And you can't use it without JS either.
