This is literally just the r/nyt subreddit about The New York Times.

Given he apparently takes inspiration from Elon Musk, it’s only a matter of time until u/spez starts adding post view limits unless you pay extra.

    It’s 100% about the IPO. Other large websites have gotten into trouble with the credit card companies by offering porn. It’s why Pornhub removed unverified amateur content, OnlyFans considered not allowing porn, and probably others. Your platform absolutely plummets in value if people have a hard time spending money there. Hiding unverified subs sounds exactly like this kind of move.

      Except the “unverified” sub in the OP is r/nyt. Last time I checked, the New York Times doesn’t offer that much porn…

      I thought unverified content was removed because of rampant unchecked abuse. Ah, maybe it was that that spurned the companies to make pornhub remove it.

        That was the excuse the credit card companies used to not allow pornhub transactions anymore. But even after they removed that content the credit card companies didn’t come back.
