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.

Ah the tumblr guide for how to kill your community.

Jokes aside that's very sad and very worrying.

I feel like this is the perfect time for the return of a certain Fawkcian group.

It looks like a lot of the subs mentioned in that post are back already, including the ones mentioned in the post tile. While i completely agree that reddit is a shitstain, this may have been a bug?

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

More like cover for banning certain subs.

[–] Petter1@lemm.ee 13 points 2 days ago
