Reddit mobile site help. (self.Blind)
submitted by BARDLover
Hello, /R?Blind.
I found Reddit a few months ago, and have been browsing easily on my IPhone 6 up until recently.
It used to be that while scrolling through links on a subreddit or my front page, it would go Subreddit, Title, number of comments. You could swipe from title and get the full content without having to open the link.
Now, it goes subreddit, poster, title, comments, and you need to open the post in order to read it.
Did I somehow change something in settings, or did this happen to everyone?
It happens on both my IOS8 IPhone 6, and my IOS9 IPhone 4S.
Thank you for your help.

I don't use read it through Safari on my iPhone or iPad, but I use an app called BaconReader which is quite accessible. You should give that a shot.

I've tried it and have a similar issue to the one I'm having on Safari. Namely, I have to open each post in order to read it.
On Safari, I used to be able to go to a Subreddit, and just scroll through a page of titles, and read the full post without having to open them. I fly quite a bit, so it was nice to load a fresh page of a Subreddit I enjoy, and just have an hour or two worth of content without having to pay for on board WIFi.

That's interesting. I've never used reddit in any capacity where posts and their contents were available on the same page. I've always used it in such a way that you have to click on the post to open and get into the contents, especially considering that each post contains comments which would also take time to load. If you had the Reddit enhancement suite installed on Safari, I think there was a key command you could use that would automatically expand all the posts and a sub Reddit, but I'm not entirely sure. It might have been the letter X.

Let me clarify.
The title of the add is available, swipre right to get to the post, swipe right and it will say how many comments, and the posts age.
I'm a Windows user aside from my phone, so while that sounds amazing, it won't help me.
I was using the mobile site, so instead of www.Reddit.com/r/blind, it was M.Reddit.com/r/blind.
