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 is banned too. Definitely feels politically motivated.

      Tumblr was already in a bad place and was further cannibalized by instagram (and reddit).

      Reddit still has no meaningful alternatives. Yes, we like lemmy. Most people don’t and won’t. They want corporate social media. Just look at how long it took people to leave twitter. And they only did once BlueSky had open sign ups.

      My money is on a bunch of “protest” posts and subreddits to track this and people mostly just sit around and not care. With a lot saying “I don’t need porn on reddit, I have the internet” while completely ignoring things like trans erasure.

      Just thinking the same thing. I wonder if this gets reversed or not.
