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 are banned too. Definitely feels politically motivated. Edit 2: seems like at least some (?) bans are being undone, like the above mentioned ones.

    I’m honestly tired of seeing people make the excuse that switching to activitypub is “too hard” because they have to pick a server. It’s 2025, is half of the population experiencing an intelligence regress or something

      I think you’re underestimating how tech challenged the average user is. It’s likely that your circle and the lemmy community as a whole tends to be more tech savvy which kinda skews it a bit; but it’s a very, very tiny subset of people and not representative of the general population of internet users.

      It’s crazy how little people understand about technology these days… But it’s also like this disinterest in even trying to learn.

      Many people I personally know don’t even know how to use a browser, they do everything through apps served to them.

        What in the heck happened lol we go from a generation of people building PCs, using DOS, hacking around in Windows and debloating operating systems, to people who can’t function unless their phone tells them what to do

          building PCs, using DOS, hacking around in Windows

          Only a tiny slice of the population ever did this. Some still do.

          More did learn how to use Windows for their jobs, but that’s largely diminished now.
