This does not surprise me in the slightest.
I already isolated the fuck out of Reddit and the links I clicked there with Temporary Containers. But it doesn’t surprise me that they’re now trying to reach around the well known fingerprinting mitigations.
The fact they’re even considering adopting such invasive scripts is the perfect sign that Reddit is dead.
I just hope the plebs don’t stay asleep for too long…though they’re being so egregiously pushy right now, that it’s only a matter of time before even the common user gets pissed off thoroughly.
It’s been 3 years and no one has done a thing about this, people who’ve stayed on reddit simply do not care about their privacy.
Another benefit of moving to lemmy, less tracking. Win win, I must say.
Edit: another 3 year old post. Sorting by hot is more than definitely bugged… Hope they fix it somewhat soon, cause idk what is going on.
Yeah I also get 3 year old posts randomly. A bit weird, not to say they are bad ones but…
Oh wow, it got me as well… Had no idea this was three years old haha.
