This includes some porn subreddits as well as subreddits like /r/Drugs. Apparently due to being “unmoderated”, but some were not. What are your thoughts?
Edit: apparently also subreddits like /r/transgender_surgeries is banned too. Definitely feels politically motivated.

Yeah a lot of banned nsfw subs today at /r/BannedSubs. People are saying it’s because next week Reddit is gonna announce their Q4 earnings and want to attract more investors and advertisers to their “cleaner” site. Lame-ass puritans, I’d say.
edit: Looks like the bans have been reversed. A reddit admin claimed it was “a bug”. Bruh, what kind of bug would only affect veeeery specific nsfw and political subreddits lmao.
How’d that work out for tumblr?
That is good news for my nsfwlemmy.com alt 😏😆
Don’t be a coward, jerk off on your main and your alt!
In my experience it is better to segregate NSFW and SFW accounts. Not because it is shameful and I don’t want people seeing, but because NSFW floods feeds and I can’t get anything done when encumbered by pretty naked women. lol
And it’s pretty wild when trying to scroll anything in public or with people nearby.
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.
Even in the Working From Home age, that content is Not Suitable For Work because the blood frequenty rushing away from one’s brain isn’t good for productivity.
A post i saw in reddit back in the day mapped the net of linked communities in comment section. To surprise of no one, nsfw and sfw were in practice fully seggregated.
I had it like this in Reddit and my account 90% porn only pretty fast and I missed all the non porn stuff 😅
So starting here on lemmy I decided to go for a split right from beginning on different instances to additionally check each instance’s meta community about downtimes in case of a downtime.
How this is called that when “lemmygetnaked” would’ve been infinitely better I’ll never know…

Testing a new AI moderator in production, I’d wager.
The kind where they were getting ready to do it, and then pulled the trigger early
They clearly have a list.
They get all the nsfw traffic for the full quarter, and use that for their earnings report. Pretty damn dishonest.
“I’m Steve Huffman, Chief Executive Ball Gargler of reddit. Elon loves me, no really!”
Anyone who didn’t see this coming a mile away hasn’t been paying attention.
yea so i finally left reddit today and joined lemmy. the internet was better when it wasn’t controlled by billionaires.
Let’s go recommend Lemmy to them!!!
I saw one thread where lemmy was being recommended and some people were on board with moving over, so that was nice to see.
I do it by posting r/lemmy. I figured mods are less likely to delete the comment if it’s a subreddit.
Kinky people are still going to be kinky even if they can’t post about it on Reddit. Here’s to hoping lemmyNSFW gets some of those “niche subs”. ;-)
I hope they are paying the hosting bill for all that media.
Certainly expected. It was my last social media (apart from Bluesky). I can’t endorse this as a trans man. Time to be more active on Lemmy and purge my Reddit account.
Hu? you are here? Aren’t you?
Idk if this distinction works for anyone else, but in my mind places like Reddit or Lemmy aren’t the same thing as “social media” because they maintained the anonymous forum structure. The activity on the site isn’t centered around people and personalities, it’s the content being discussed.
I agree, but with “last social media” he was referring to Reddit…
Oh. Yeah. Maybe he just meant “last” as in the one prior and not last as in final? Idk.
The last big tech Social Network 😇
I wasn’t super active (I created my account when they banned third party apps but the content wasn’t there yet).
they’re also targeting those with anti Fascist opinions and eliminating them from the site. by reporting them for hate speech and anti anything they can come up with. both the Mods and admins seem more than willing to help.
My previous 15yo account was banned with no warning for saying Palestinians have a right to defend themselves at any cost. I never had so much as a post removed or warning from admins. And it left my largest subs unmoderated and now they returned to shit
Does that mean we’re going to get an influx of people from those communities on lemmy? They’re welcome. Especially if they post in both…
But in all seriousness, yes it’s politically motivated.
Reddit, Meta, Twitter, the list goes on… if you’re still using the services provided by the nazis in any capacity, you are perpetuating the continued relevance and power of a nazi machine. The end.
You need it to stay in touch with friends and family? Bullshit. These apps have been around for 10-20 years, friends and families have been around for hundreds of thousands of years. You just like the convenience.
You need it to stay informed? Bullshit. The info is out there and easy to find, don’t be so lazy that you need to be spoonfed information by the same 3 bookmarks in your browser. They’re deciding for you what you can and can’t read about, and spoon feeding you propaganda as well.
If you are a truly principled person that sees all this for what it is, you will disconnect yourself from these things and encourage everyone you care about to do the same any time it comes up.
Otherwise you’re just making excuses and assisting our decline.
Reddit just has more hobbyist shit than anywhere else rnow, hoping ppl realize the sites garbage and provides nothing that lemmy cant without ads and garbage mods
Remember during next pride month, when they change their X picture on western accounts, that at the end of the day most companies will kill without discrimination for a fiver.
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!
LTT had a few videos on degoogling your life. Provides some alternatives to each service.
People were predicting this a while back as a way that reddit would make themselves more “advertiser-friendly”.
I also wonder if there were some legal concerns in those states that now require porn sites to check IDs.
omg lemme servers. This is reddit DDOS attack on us.
It’s FDoS when it’s federated.
This is the opportunity the Fediverse was waiting for.
