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. This will actually BLOCK you from even viewing reddit on your phone without using the official app.

    To give them their due (little as that may be), this only seems to prevent users from logging in to the mobile web interface, not from viewing content as a random user from Google.

      I didn’t get the notice, but scrolling through a sub yesterday, I got a notification that this action (viewing a subreddit) is only available for logged in users on the app. Seriously?? Just to view a sub? I reloaded the page as desktop site, and it allowed me to view the sub, although formatted terribly. Reddit is getting much worse than I thought possible.
