You Can't Look at Porn on Any Reddit Third-Party App Now

A piece of shit now

I've heard it was a popular discussion place people would go to. Even called the front page of the internet because it was the first and best source for compiled news and information. Its CEO had some quotes that showed how important free flow of information was.

"I don't think we should silence people just because their viewpoints are something we disagree with. There is value in the conversation, and we as a society need to confront these issues. This is an incredibly complex topic, and I'm sure our thinking will continue to evolve."

"We are not the thought police. It's not the role of a private company to decide what people can and cannot say."

He was also forward thinking in designing an open forum, controlled by individuals.

"Our approach to governance is that communities can set appropriate standards around language for themselves. Many communities have rules around speech that are more restrictive than our own, and we fully support those rules."

Wait, that sounds more like the Fediverse.

A miserable pile of secrets

A Reddit is when you destroy a social media platform because you're angry with its users. It's a common billionaire or wannabe billionaire move.

A miserable little pile of shitposts. But enough talk... Have at you!

A lot of deleted comments

Must be one of those eReader things.

A featherless biped

One of those dead websites like Digg, MySpace, Livejournal etc.

If you see this message, then you've reddit already.

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.

To be fair, there's been a site wide spoiler tag for a few years now, but yeah before it was introduced people used NSFW for that if a community didn't allow actual NSFW stuff or whatever

It’s not all NSFW. The Synology community I followed went full NSFW in protest and I can still view their subreddit. I cannot view subreddits such as watchitfortheplot. So somehow Reddit is differentiating.

Request the desktop site. Just tried it in Firefox on Android and it no longer says to open in app.

Or use old.reddit.com too.

I just did a quick test with the DuckDuckGo browser. Didn't seem to have any issues loading a bunch of NSFW posts. You have to be signed in though, but I think it's been like that for quite a while now.

They even do the same thing with SFW posts, they just say it’s “unreviewed content” or whatever.

I logged onto Apollo using side loading. NSFW still works??

Digg-ing

Dozens of people still use Tumblr!

Ah so this is why my apps sorta kinda work but are buggy as shit.

You are the real mvp

Which app are you using? On boost it tries to load (even non NSFW) but it does not load the posts.

Edit: NVM, Took a while but SFW and NSFW posts indeed are still loading on boost, for various accounts of mine.

Also be sure to put a bunch of stupid shit in your sub to make the site more lame. Post about how it's lame and people should use Lemmy or Kbin instead.

May I present you PornLemmy?

Already happening

Devastated at the fact that this comment rhymes.

Lemmynsfw.com has plenty

Lemmynsfw.com

Pornlemmy.com

Pornlemmy.com

New instance, seems promising

Thanks friend!

Do we really need porn Here? Im trying to figure that out for myself.

LMAO, perfect

Brains or butthole, otherwise keep walking.

All companies that go to IPO purge their porn content beforehand unless they are dedicated pornography businesses, and even those have a massive shakeup of what content is and is not allowed (pornhub and onlyfans being examples). It's not because they're "puritanical". When a company IPOs it opens itself up to share purchases but what most people miss is that it also opens itself up to shortselling, this is essentially a shares "downvote" where the person shorting a company can make money if the company's value goes down.

Negative press causes a company's value to go down. And the people that own the press are the financial industry, they use and weaponise their media contacts and friends to achieve financial outcomes very successfully.

So when a company IPOs one of the things it does is seek to remove all possible things on a service that can be weaponised as negative press against the company in order for people to profit off of shortselling the drop in value this causes in the market.

The situation is that Reddit and Imgur have a sizeable amount of likely illegal pornographic content on their servers.

Their options are:

• To ban all the porn. Which it looks like they are trying to do. On paper this is the best option for investors, as it protects the investment. However in the real world this can piss off the userbase and tank the website by losing a sizeable amount of users (see Tumblr).
• To continue without any changes. This is also guarantees the investment tanking, all it takes is one Anderson Cooper style jailbait investigation into Reddit to destroy the investment. I guarantee that there is a significant amount of underage content uploaded to it, certainly enough to stir up a shitstorm in the media.
• To implement proper age verification for pornographic content, like pornhub and onlyfans did. But in the investment world it is unpopular to be seen as a person that invests in pornography, the investors don't want it to be public knowledge that they are investing in a porn website in some way and Reddit implementing proper verification processes will make it clear that Reddit is a pornography business. Thus also devaluing the investment.

The VC money dried up

They are losing access to nearly limitless free money

I'm still using Sync. Patched it using Revanced. I also see NSFW on it, because I started a bullshit NSFW sub. Shout out to https://reddit.com/r/droidsgonewild . I even posted some content so it didn't look like I was just trying to get NSFW thru the API.

Reddit couldn't meet their own deadlines. I'm using infinity on android, and its still working, at least to view content when logged out.

The apps that don't work either chose to close, or had their their api keys revoked.

They massacred my boy!

Judge me as the deranged pervert I am but there was a blog hurtboys that collated pictures of hot guys with bruises I miss to this day :'(

Unfortunately, his crappy app wouldn't let him fap in peace.

The grim reaper is coming for old.reddit.com any day now.

Yeah, theres a few that are gonna switch to a subscription model to pay off the ridiculous price reddit is asking. Fucking shills, man.

Boost was still working till now on Android. They seem to have finally killed it.

Red Reader will continue to function.

You can use them if you aren't logged into your account. I still try BaconReader every once in awhile, just to see my old friend. Even the NSFW links worked just now.

It is still based on usage so you don't need to cough up 10 mil for starters. You ONLY need something like 10$ a month per user. Can't recall the exact numbers anymore but the point remains.

This works even if you create a private subreddit, and it just takes like 30 seconds. I'm now proudly moderating r/fuckuspez1.

Upvote this one, the like makes the whole thing moot

The Internet is for Porn! 🎶

I can't remember the exact quote but someone once said "if all porn was removed from the internet tomorrow, by the next day there would be one website left called bringbacktheporn.com

Modding a NSFW subreddit also unblocks all of it. Anyone can just make a private sub and mark it 18+ and still have all their porn, tested it on Relay and it worked fine. For science, of course.

they all went dark

A couple of them (such as Infinity) were granted an extension and still work.

One of the larger instances is lemmynsfw.com, there’s a fair amount of porn there.

Not quite the levels there are on Reddit, though. And very little OC from what I’ve seen.

Nowhere near to the same level of niche.

Fediverse is strangely prudish. Not much porn, and when it shows up, instances defederate from it.

Oh, that's interesting. I was hoping a scraper would emerge. Stealth's scraper (currently) doesn't seem to actually display content that is marked nsfw. Maybe they haven't yet figured out how to detect/accept the confirm 18+ barrier on old.reddit.com.

never knew stealth had that option, thank you!
