>e.g. locking the user out and prompting them to install an app

this has never happened to me in 5+ years of using reddit

This absolutely happens on Reddit's mobile site; a little popup-overlay/link reading "Continue on the app!" blocks the content you're reading like you've run out of free Quora questions, can't be closed, and persists on reload.

Lost a ten year old account because I didn't give them my email address fast enough. New policy. Account gone forever.

Maybe they don't do that, but for sure they log me out almost every day from Firefox/Android and I'm willing to bet dollars to peanuts they don't do that on the app.

I even have freaking 2FA but they still don't remember the device and ask me every time for the code.

i think that happens because of cookies, if they're cleared you get logged out. do you have settings on firefox that do that? i don't use it so can't tell you.
