Totally not suspicious timing at all.

Also if you’re willing to visit reddit, the comments under the post are great. They’re not fooling anyone.

            Spez and Elon sitting in a tree, ruining the internet entirely.

        They didn’t “review” subs when there was one using images of children as child pornography, without the subjects knowledge or consent.

        They didn’t “review” subs when mask-off, far-right extremists moved in and started trading slurs and writing murder fantasies.

        They didn’t “review” subs when reactionaries were spreading dangerous and clearly false medical misinformation in the middle of a pandemic.

        But they’ll review subs when those subs might be a threat to their revenue.

          Actually, Spez personally reviewed a subreddit rife with child pornography, r/Jailbait. Everyone seems to forget that Spez is actually a pedophile.

          I’m pretty sure that’s just the standard message they show when you attempt to view any nsfw content on their new site.

              Right, but give your users free reign to draw whatever they want pixel by pixel and it’s going to quickly become nsfw. I know reddit sucks and all and I’m not trying to give them the benefit of the doubt. I just don’t think this message is the conspiracy theory everyone thinks it is.

                Not exactly a conspiracy theory to predict that a company that has been routinely unethical might be unethical.

        Old.Reddit doesn’t have that problem though I’m sure they’re working on it

          When old.reddit finally goes away is when I will finally stop even the minimal remaining interaction I have with that site.

        Spez is one of those people who still find Elon perfect and infallible despite everything. It’s worse though, because he has the power to change things.

        Censorship. They don’t want unregistered guests seeing alternatives

        They censored a lot of stuff on r/place back in 2022 (I don’t remember the 2017 r/place). It seems basically inevitable that they’re going to remove all of the “FUCK SPEZ” stuff at some point (or try and put something else on the canvas where the “FUCK SPEZ” stuff is). It would be really bad publicity for the site if a picture of the canvas plastered with “FUCK [the CEO of Reddit]” ended up in the media before the site’s IPO. I’d love to be wrong though as it’ll be fucking hilarious if the final canvas picture has at least one giant “FUCK SPEZ” on it.

        They might do their mass censorship operation when their most active users are asleep to limit the outrage.

      If r/place ever taught me anything it is that coordination of r/place does not happen on Reddit.

      On both cases it was swarmed and “ruined” by influencers on other sites.
