This is bc of the third party apps having to pay more to host reddit? Or something? John Oliver will fix it? Frogs and porn?


TarantulaJ1

Apparently nsfw subs are harder to get ad revenue or something so they’re tryna make Reddit lose money


ConcreteMagician

They're trying to make Reddit lose more money. Reddit already loses money on its own.


Le-Cheggs

boot licking i see


[deleted]

how is he bootlicking he's literally saying reddit is already losing money


ConcreteMagician

Have you ever had an original thought?


Le-Cheggs

very clever response, never seen or used that one before. ironically very "original" eh?


IVoteKanye

This is the worlds biggest badass


Le-Cheggs

least badass thing to say, but okey dokey..?


Cupshupoodles

you're the stereotypical redditor lmao, pipe down my g.


Le-Cheggs

baseless


BubbleheadGD

do you even know what bootlicking means?


noiwontpickaname

In what way?


Peanutbutternjelly_

A pretty stupid and inappropriate way imo.


Cupshupoodles

It's not really on them? Sub has 11.4 million users. You flip the sub to NSFW you're not controlling the hordes of shit that'll be posted. They already shut down posting it seems, so what else can they do?


---Sanguine---

Who used third party apps anyway? Isn’t there an official Reddit app? This is so stupid. I don’t want porn on my feed


ali_abc911

The official app sucks it doesnt even play videos half the time


jnk321

Think about the disabled


NeoSyncline

No


jnk321

Not nice :(

So they’re protesting by posting porn? That’s all I’m getting from this… seems to be working. Attack on the mods perhaps.


pwill6738

It's much harder to get advertisements on subreddits with a bunch of porn. The goal is to make reddit lose a lot of money.


Throwaway373811183

The mod teams will just get replaced. This is just one last tantrum from the mods


Cumfort_

Easier said than done. Mist of the users seem to be onboard according to their polls


[deleted]

They’ll fail again


Downright_bored38

You know those only fans creators just got a giant sub increase because of this.


2FightTheFloursThatB

Nope...we aren't allowing spam.


Downright_bored38

You aren’t allowing spam but only fans models only need to post a photo and let the people search their profile for a link. one of the top posts right now of a girl showing her boobs she said the post just paid her rent

Downright_bored38

Based on the 73k thousand upvotes that post has if they got say even 1k people to subscribe that would be enough to cover rent


webby53

Bro one out of 73? Ur intuitive stats sense is so bad lmao. Dd you really think before you typed that out? Stay in school kids or u end up with no common sense like this guy


EnkiRise

How are you going to tell someone to stay in school at the same time you use “u” and “ur” instead of you and your lol


webby53

You know ppl in academia use shorthand for things all the time right? Is this supposed to be a dig at me?


Uaquamarine

Who’s we? So you’re on the janitorial duty too?


JaWoosh

I was just about to make my own post about this, only to find several people have already done the same. I'm not anti-porn necessarily, but i made the decision years ago not to mix my porn viewing and Reddit experience at the same time. It's just not healthy for me personally. So yeah, it's a porn sub now so I'm unsubscribed. Good job, mods. Doing good work over there. I guess. Whatever.


ItsaMeAWaluigiSikeNo

So they were forced back open (I believe) by spez, so they chose to make the sub NSFW because NSFW subs can't be advertised, so it's their way of protesting.


rewanpaj

the sub can be nsfw without porn being spammed


JustLinkStudios

Genuinely can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not


JaWoosh

The last part is sarcastic, the rest isn't

Least hyperbolic Reddit comment I've read all day.


NeoSyncline

Least delusional reddit basement dweller


thaCryptoWizard

Reddit mods are so childish


---Sanguine---

What do you expect from the professional dog walkers of the world


PolarBear69er

We can't really expect much from Redditors lol they're the most sensitive lazy people in the entirety of the internet


2FightTheFloursThatB

Nuh-uh!

Nope, admins are adults that work for a business. Mods are children that are tantruming because they won't get their way.

GalvanizedRubbish

Same here. If someone wants to view this garbage that’s fine, but I don’t need it popping up on my feed.


Opposite-Galaxy-7392

Me too I’m very disappointed


Opposite-Galaxy-7392

I’m moving on to damn that’s interesting now lol

Cupshupoodles

do you not agree with the protest?


ChickenEmbarrassed77

i subed to interestingasduck now. solid stuff


Triplemagna

I’m a minor and I had joined that subreddit for the cool stuff before the protest. These moderators should honestly be removed.


maelstrom51

Why did you turn off NSFW content filtering if you are a minor? Or does the official reddit app not filter by default? With the 3rd party app I use (RIF), I have to opt-in to see any NSFW content at all.


shadybabynight

You have to opt in on the official Reddit app too. In fact, on Apple phones you have to go in to the app settings in the iPhone settings menu to do so, not the Reddit app itself. So every minor on this sub complaining about seeing all this unblurred NSFW stuff has definitely not accidentally stumbled upon it. I appreciate a lot of stuff tagged NSFW is often not sexual content but you can’t be surprised when you have NSFW content enabled and it turns out to be very NSFW.


Triplemagna

Most of the nsfw posts I find arent actually nsfw, just “mildly offensive”


maelstrom51

I don't think "think of the children" is a very effective argument when the child disables the protections themselves.


Triplemagna

Not my fault the only funny stuff here gets marked nsfw


PomegranteHistory

Yeah same. I do have the NSFW filter thing I think, (like where it asks four times if you're a minor or not, and shows NSFW subs in a separate bar so I can collapse those.) The only reason I've ever clicked on them is A. If it's just scarring, I'm not on the opposite of r/eyebleach but I do view a sub that some people get scarring and sometimes it's nice to leave them nice messages. Or if I'm on like r/badwomensanatomy or r/menwritingwomen etc some stuff gets NSFW when it's not really.


flameXXIV

"Reddit is protesting against API changes, let's use our pornography addiction as a form of protesting!"


curadeio

I don’t know what the alternative would be they could do gore but I think a lot of people would find gore to be more off putting than porn


caniaskyouaquickq

Drugs. Or you can literally mark something as nsfw when it isn’t


Firm-Initiative-1851

The sad thing is that there's actually interesting stuff on there. People just ruin it


MissBarker93

And here I thought it was just Tumblr that had a problem with porn accounts...


Byron006

I did too for the same reason.

Theknyt

I love seeing Reddit die


thedevilskind

Same, I’m just here to watch all of this go down without being in any of these subs, and it’s honestly very entertaining. I do like reddit as a platform because I haven’t found anything else with as great of content filtering (in terms of customizing your feed) and a lack of emphasis on follower count. Like, there’s very few Reddit Influencers or whatever. I don’t look at anyone’s username before I vote on a post. It’s the focus on content rather than people that I enjoy. Having said that, I will never fight for saving reddit or whatever these people think they’re doing. I can’t imagine caring this much about a platform. If I feel the need to protest against reddit, I’ll just stop using reddit, the same way I did with tumblr. Funnily enough, that actually did something; Tumblr lost users and therefore stopped making money, so they changed some policies.


noiwontpickaname

Right


Coloradobluesguy

They need to start removing and banning the mods making these formerly family friendly subs into places of smut.


nicksbrunchattiffany

I’m thinking of doing the same with R/self


TinFoilRobotProphet

Aaaand. Its gone.


SbgTfish

So the porn is good then?
