Places like Japan are always treated very differently on social media from the rest of the world. The system doesn't work, the contents don't work, memes don't work. They won't do anything that shrinks an already postage stamp sized Japanese community on Reddit.
I think it's just a divide and conquer approach: if they killed it everywhere at once, there would be a larger backlash, so they are careful to roll out the change gradually.

More or less it becomes like facebook and meta apps,.very intrusive login requirement to see content
As of today, we now have this restriction even in Japan.
I guess I'm just not using Reddit on my phone anymore.
