I just happened to wander over to that inferior site reddit.

I use a browser on phone and I don't log in and noticed that it only displayed 5 stories, instead of it's usual infinite scrolling.

  • I tried with and without a VPN set to Australia
  • Desktop mode browser was prompting to create an account or login, with no bypass

Interestingly, setting a VPN to some other countries had it working as normal.

Has the forced login begun?

That's my guess.

Horrah for the end of reddit. Hopefully the pain teaches people to stop going for centralised services.

    I keep thinking "Come Join us!"

    but then

    "Oh, except for that sub, and that one, and that one. I guess they could go join that other lemmy instance"
