You can use https://i.reddit.com. it is so much faster than m.reddit.com, it's unbelievable. Really shows how those JavaScript frameworks slow down everything and have a severe impact on my browsing experience. When reddit closes down i.reddit.com, I will not use Reddit on mobile anymore; maybe not even on desktop.

Thanks I had no idea that i.reddit existed. It's so much better than the standard mobile version. I don't understand why they don't focus on making reddit fast and reliable.

Making it beautiful with nice animations should come second and the mobile version still crash a few times a day for me.

They've been dicking about with it making it harder to choose the mobile version. One time, earlier this year, I got a "use the app" screen with no option to continue - you could block the overlay though.

Recently they added a useless interstitial.

It's interesting to me they say the app is faster; presumably they're artificially slowing the mobile site just to push app installs.

Scroll down.

The worst part is the banner advertises features that I absolutely do not want.
