I posted about that here and forgot < https://lemmy.world/post/896361> but today when I checked cloudflare analytics it showed about 1000 pageviews in last 24 hours. Looks like some people are using it so just wanted to let you guys know that it works, no ads. no popups nothing.

It just sends one xhr request to reddit. Unless you have blocked reddit or disabled javascript it should work. Can you please right click > inspect element > console and paste the output here.

I haven't blocked reddit and can access it just fine. I'm not sure how to inspect the source on Firefox mobile though.

Please if you can share the details of your device and browser, i will look into it and fix it.

It's a oneplus 9 pro on Android 13 (oxygenOS 13.1) with Firefox mobile (which ever is the currently latest published version). No need to fix it just for me though, as I'm not browsing reddit anymore, but it might help others.

Using Firefox with private browsing, I get this:

Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://www.reddit.com/r/all/.json?limit=20. (Reason: CORS request did not succeed). Status code: (null).
The resource at “https://www.reddit.com/r/all/.json?limit=20” was blocked because content blocking is enabled. rdx.overdevs.com

Works fine in normal mode though.
