As quoted from the linked post.

It looks like you’re part of one of our experiments. The logged-in mobile web experience is currently unavailable for a portion of users. To access the site you can log on via desktop, the mobile apps, or wait for the experiment to conclude.

This is separate from the API issue. The are actually going to BLOCK you from even viewing reddit on your phone without using the official app.

      Good news is best delivered piece by piece, bad news all at once.

      The outrage against Reddit is already at its peak, may as well use it as cover to do more anti-user stuff.

      The post is a month old. There was still hope they’d not mess up the api pricing
