    Which is kind of funny because one of the reasons Reddit got so big was because of the pornography

    That was like, half the reason I used reddit, lol. Otherwise it’s just a shithole full of “aHkshUaly” people.

    Take your clothes off, or give me something actually interesting and insightful to read, or fuck right off.

    Lmao this puritanical turn from all these tech companies over the last 5-6 years I don’t get it. All they are going to do is speed self-immolation. What is happening to the internet.

    Not just porn! Since reddit only has one such tag you can apply to posts, many subreddits were using the NSFW tag for a wider variety of reasons such as spoilers, content which may contain unsettling material (aka “triggers”), and more!

      The stoners on Reddit got screwed - many of the weed subs got the banhammer, and the rest got NSFW’d because spez wants Reddit as G-rated as Disney for the IPO.

    It is possible on Stealth which is an accountless option with options to use a teddit instance. Little reason to even have an account anymore on reddit, and for those who say subs. Stealth lets you have a feed too. And those that say saving comments or posts Stealth lets you do that too. All locally and exportable.

    If you continue using reddit on the phone why let reddit keep harvesting account specific data while just lurking? Go use stealth instead over doing stuff like patching past third party apps and logging in and letting them track your activity then being drawn to add value to the platform through engagement by being tempted to upvotes, downvote, and post.
