Can you explain the meme pls? 🙏

Some mods are doing the bare minimal due to the questionable attitude of Reddit CEO/admins. As long as the topic sort of match, it will not be removed. i.e. r/iOS, as long as it is upload from iOS device, it is consider as legit post, which of course results in a lot of NSFW content. Another is r/steam, which is now a sub for steam train, steam buns, steam vegetable, etc and etc

Thank you for context, I wasn't browsing reddit for some days now

The biggest thing that hit the front page is porn from r/interestingasfuck. That whole subreddit is a 50-50 on what post you click on (because it's a NSFW subreddit now).

I didn't even know about this until my friend sent me a post that hit r/all.

just to be safe, don't do it at work, school or in front of grandma/grandpa

Based.

And if you do, do so using libreddit so you don't add any traffic to it.

Just put reddit.adminforge.de instead of www.reddit.com to open it in libreddit and not add to reddit's traffic.

While I absolutely love the playfulness in upending a sub’s theme a la steam, ultimately reddit probably won’t care much. As long as they’re getting sellable engagement, the topics are almost irrelevant.

I do think the subs going hands-up on moderating might be more effective. Because if you just leave the doors wide open, you’ll get flooded with bots and porn. Bots and porn for days.

Most of them are OF models but I can't complain. NSFW content will hurt Reddit and driver away the investors.

Reddit supposedly does not receive ad revenue on posts that are nsfw, so some mods are changing their subreddits (that are forced to go public) to nsfw and loosening up rules. Hence, the Pornhub logo design
