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.
Archive.org link in case the post is removed.
This will cause search engines to deprioritize reddit threads in search results due to the ‘bounce factor’.
If it’s blocked for logged in users, why would that effect search engines?
Lots of users use search engines to find topics or solutions on reddit. Since the inbuilt search function of reddit is so bad, it’s easier that way.
Reddit is one of the best places to find tech support for more niche topics like open RGB, but you have to fund them somehow.
