Something big is happening, as Reddit seems to have purged literally every NSFW sub they know. Reason is always "unmoderated" despite some of the banned subreddits being fully moderated.
Edit: seems to have been a bug in automation (thanks @lefty7283@lemmy.world):

It's still a good reminder on how quickly a community (or communities) thousands of people enjoy and in some cases rely upon can disappear.
Ai iS ThE fUtURe
Lmao ok sure. Any money says they tried to plug an LLM into AutoMod.
That's what it looks like. There are a lot of NSFW subs that didn't get banned, and some that got banned that weren't NSFW like /r/narcissisticabuse. All marked as for "being unmoderated". If they were actually banning NSFW subs, you'd think they'd say so.
Lol they still didn't ban r/piracy?
That's so surprising, I thought it would be one of the first ones to go...
🤔
Overwatch r34 ban
So you have chosen death by a thousand exoduses
No porn = more horny people = more births
No abortion = more births
The logic driving US legislation everyone, it's not so much "protect the children" thinking as "make the children have children" thinking.
Honestly, they've guaranteed that the US therapy industry is going to have patients for decades to come!
I sure am grateful for how easy it is to avoid porn on lemmy, may that continue to be the case with the certain upcoming influx of it.
Did they? I just looked and my porn multi is still full of everything I expect it to be.
Just following in Tumblr's footsteps. They have to sanitize it to fully monetize it.
Terrible choice caving into the pseudo-moralists, but they've been going down a bad path for a long time. They should've looked at the cautionary tale of Tumblr before committing this own goal. Making sweeping changes to fit in with corporate agendas may be popular among their own class, but it also has the longer-term effect of sacrificing the user base. And they've been hemorrhaging for a while anyway. Where do they think their future profits will come from?
Lol RIP reddit
According to a post from our Admin, in the small instance I'm in there has been a sudden influx of new users (about 200) in the last day or so (as new users have to be approved, somebody is getting cramps on their approve finger).
(Guess Anarchism and Piracy could technically count as NSFW in most workplaces, especially the latter)
Let's goon
