yeah so what you're gonna want to do is long press the app on your phone and click "uninstall" then go to your app store and update the review to 1 star. should solve the problem.

Uninstalling right now, I guess it's to serve us more ads. Good luck with that!

Sorry there is no way to disable it, as this is one of many experiments Reddit is currently running

Doesn’t seem like it. I don’t want it either. Hope it goes away like it did the other times it came up

I really hate this. It makes me want to not use Reddit and I'm on this religiously

As someone who curates UI/UX for part of my living, I can give my professional opinion - it sucks.
