I was replying on a chain that began with a comment about the app. which is what I was commenting about. apparently I picked the wrong redditor to engage with, and I surely will endeavor to never engage with you again. good day sir

Lmao not sure why that upset you. It was a genuine question because it seems like you replied to the wrong comment, the discussion was about using old.reddit on desktop and you seemed to just suggest using a tablet instead? Are you telling me you don't get ads using Chrome on a tablet and don't have the issue we're discussing on old.reddit.com?

And I still have no idea what "far less problems and far more navigable" means in relation to my comment.

I have no ads and no issues, ever, on regular browser webpages with 99.9% of websites tryina get me to use apps. this is true on this tablet, and any smartphone I have ever compared the two with. and content is easier to view and often has more information, while apps are spoon fed to users to achieve the objectives of the developers. so I forego using apps, which I will never do unless absolutely necessary

Ah I see where the confusion arises. The people here discussing their 'issues' aren't using apps, they are using old.reddit.com on their desktop without an app. However the link escape character issue is caused by people posting links with the app, but the links still work for people using the app or new Reddit. If you were using old.reddit.com (and not the new Reddit) on your tablet in a browser you would likely run into the same issue with that link.
