Reddit is purging NSFW subs as well as trans-related subreddits
-
I wasn’t super active (I created my account when they banned third party apps but the content wasn’t there yet).
-
-
How about neither of them should be banned. Fuck this puritan BS
-
The kind where they were getting ready to do it, and then pulled the trigger early
-
I’d stopped using the platform a while ago and went full Lemmy, but this was the push I needed to delete that shit out of my life. Just need to figure out Google and Apple next, they’ve got me by the balls with those services!
-
Now they say it was a bug? How that works?
-
The reaction was the bug.
-
Fine, I'll get an NSFW alt...
-
Do you know what /r/guro is? It's sexualized gore.
-
Maybe testing the waters. Next time it will be a bug so severe that they can't bring them back, but making new ones isn't allowed either.
-
Knowing current Reddit, that's quite possible. Though I'd love to see a migration through LemmyNSFW if that happens again permanently.
-
Ah the tumblr guide for how to kill your community.
Jokes aside that's very sad and very worrying.
-
How is nsfw Lemmy doing for hosting costs? Seems like it would be expensive to maintain all the images.
-
And it's pretty wild when trying to scroll anything in public or with people nearby.
-
LTT had a few videos on degoogling your life. Provides some alternatives to each service.
-
This is the opportunity the Fediverse was waiting for.
-
Just like reddit it mostly doesn't host the images itself, but simply links to them. Redgif seems to be the host of choice for most, although some also use catbox.
-
They clearly have a list.
-
Testing a new AI moderator in production, I’d wager.
-
Not an issue I have to contend with personally as I don't use anything other than my laptop at home when I want to be on the internet, but a very valid reason to separate NSFW from SFW social media nonetheless.
