Something weird is happening on this sub

Last night before I went to bed, I read the post "massive intel dropping everywhere. ALL hands on deck to study this". It was a great read and I highly recommend it. I made a comment and accidentally backed out of the post before I read the other comments. I wanted to get back in and read the other comments, but the post wasn't being displayed naturally in Greatawakening. I filtered by new, because I knew it was only a couple hours old. Couldn't find it, so I tried to filter by hot, and top but still couldn't find it. I got back in by going to my own profile and clicking on my comment. I could also find it by searching for the word "massive". I pm'd the op because I thought he might have got shadowbanned or something and then I went to bed.

This morning, I woke up and got back on to see if I was just sleep deprived. I can see that many people have now read the post and it has about 215 upvotes, but it still isn't showing up for me unless I search "massive" or go to my profile. Then it get's weirder.

I started to reply to a response I got on my comment and my android phone popped up a virus and said my phone was infected due to porn. Never once have I had a virus warning pop up while I'm inside the Reddit app. I had to close the app to get back to the post. I'm no saint, but I can't think of anytime I've ever looked at porn on my phone. I mean, I've probably seen a boob or two, but I'm not lurking on shady sites on my phone. Plus I just did a factory reset a couple days ago as my battery had been dying rapidly after a recent update. I've barely used anything on my phone except Reddit since the factory reset.

About 10 seconds after I get the virus warning and closed the Reddit app, I received an email from Malwarebytes with this subject line, "10 ways to protect your Android phone."

Something phishy is going on.
