    then there are companies like yelp who disable their mobile site and make their desktop site as shitty as possible on mobile to force you to the app.

      Doesn’t really sound like a company that I would want to do any business with then.

      What’s that other shitty company that constantly pesters you to download the app every time you average the site? Teddit?

        For reddit, just type in old.reddit.com and those nags disappear.

            Eh, I prefer it to new Reddit on mobile, especially with all the nags.
