Employees of Reddit must have a very low opinion of their users if they think they're going to fall for "This community is available in the app".

Their customers i.e. marketers prefer people who fall for things like that

Around every twentieth post on the front page of Reddit is a video of someone being punched, kicked, stabbed, or shot. If there are Reddit employees who hold a high opinion of Reddit's users, they should raise their standards.

They block on the subreddit's main page, but individual pages are not blocked. I sometimes request desktop site, click on the discussion I want, than go back requesting mobile site. Works well where there's always a long and daily discussion on the sub.

I will never download the app just because they do this.

> you must continue in Reddit app or log in

They're not forcing you to use the app. Did you try logging in?

There are also alternative much better apps (e.g. redreader from the F-Droid store for Android).
