Some Reddit users have noticed that they can’t sign-in to their accounts anymore on mobile, as the option to do so has been removed for them.

They want to push everyone on their apps because they collect a ton of metrics that they can easily resell. Metrics are way harder to collect on browsers in a consistent fashion.
