I use RSS to fetch reddit posts for subs that are not active in Lemmy.
Sometimes I need to read the comments so I’d view the post from safari. Today, I tried like 3 post and when click on view post, it would redirect me to the App Store.
When I decided to screenshot the page to make this post, it did show the post but would refuse like 1 out of 5 times.
That only happens on mobile.
Idk about others but I rarely ever browse with desktop anymore. That’s still gonna hit google rankings hard.
What I wanted to say is that googles crawlers shouldn’t have any difficulties. But still if such a thing would happen on all platforms, they likely would make an exception for google. Just like many paywalled sites do. As far as I read it’s not clear how much traffic influences the ranking.
It seems like many of the “all desktop people” don’t know the “all mobile people” exist, and many of the all mobile people don’t know the desktop people exist. I’ve seen some discussions in PC-centric communities shocked to hear how few people even have a laptop let alone a full PC anymore. It’s like the sitting vs standing wiping people used to not know each other existed before the internet blew up about it.
What? People stand to wipe their ass?
Not sure if you’re serious or I’m wooshing, but yep. Some people apparently partly stand (not like all the way up afaik) to wipe.
Yeh serious. Ohh ok yeh I get the halfway stand sometimes.
