On mobile, it prompts you to either "get the app" or "open app" with no way to click past. Screenshot won't upload.

This is worse from several months ago https://lemmy.today/post/8935690

That's pretty scummy. It doesn't require login on desktop view.

Two workarounds:

  1. enable desktop view, then you can close the login prompt and zoom way in to find the actual download button
  2. easier, change dl=0 to dl=1 at the end of the URL and it will bypass all of that and download directly.
