I might even prefer it to the desktop site (not to speak of the mobile site).
1. download uBlock origin for it (yep, same add on, works in android firefox)
2. browse to reddit, an interstitial should pop up nagging you to use the app.
3. open up the menu and select uBlock origin at the bottom, select the eye dropper tool.
4. click on the div that is dimming all the content, this should give you an option to filter it out, uBlock will give you a list of parent elements you can add to the filter instead. In this case the one you are looking for is .DualPartInterstitial. You can verify with the preview button.
This will commit this div to your personal filter list.
If you frequent sites with these types of nags, this process will let you manually dismiss them until they redesign. Ideally they would respect your preferences themselves, but they never do.
That can be used in conjunction with uMatrix to discard the site's own CSS.
I personally love using Sync for Reddit. It provides a nice and fluid experience.
Reddit has always been app-first on mobile, web-first on desktop. This has been true since the very first reddit mobile app.
If you're okay using your very inferior solution, then please do not come in here to complain about your willfully chosen inferior experience, because the people here will only seek to help you by educating you on the basic ways to use the reddit service...
No it hasn't, they only released the official reddit app in 2016. Reddit bought alien blue in 2014 but even that was only available on iOS
?? Are you confusing the reddit API with the official crap reddit app? It's okay to be ignorant about reddit, but your fake correction borne out of ignorance is weird and misplaced.
Alien Blue development began when the first official iOS App Store debuted in 2010, and was released shortly there after

The reddit apps for Android came out around the same time frame.
So the reddit apps for iOS/Android came out when the app stores came out. For nearly as long as we've had smartphones, we've had reddit API and third party apps. That's the entire history of reddit mobile: API + third party apps.
Anyone with any knowledge of reddit knows that their strategy for mobile was API+third party apps for the majority of their history, and their recent first party apps are ignored and suck.
