edit: Reddit admin says "this is a bug and has been reversed".

r/IsElonDeadYet is still banned though and r/whitepeopletwitter is still under a 72-hour temp ban for "glorifying violence or doxing" against Elon's DOGE crew.

tinfoil hat on reddit admins got a threat from elon, so to cover up any mass hysteria from banning the problematic subs directly, they "accidentally" ban a bunch of random subs along with their actual targets.

Now everyones talking about r/boobs and whatever, they're restoring service whilst quietly keeping the anti musk subs banned without anyone giving a shit

This is how r/cth can still win

First they came for the Coomers

And I did not speak out

Because I was not a Coomer


Then they came for the Monster Girls

And I did not speak out

Because I was not a Monster Girl


Then they came for the Adam Friedland stans

And I did not speak out

Because I was not a center-left podcaster


Then they came for me

And there was no one left

To speak out for me

This but unironically

Let's not pretend that reddit is all of a sudden a defender of women's rights and a radfem-ran site

This was surely on purpose. Some people at Reddit HQ wanted to lump in Elon's neo conservatism Christofascism with his evidently thin skin. Get porn banned along with anti Elon subs to draw the gooners to the anti Elon crowd.

Delightfully devilish

Too bad the mass banning of porn subs was a mistake. All digital porn should be banned and the gooners must retvrn to magazines hidden in the woods to reconnect to nature

Adam was the bug that got everyone banned

Porn subs should have stayed banned

Wtf? Admin says all of the bans were a bug

[–] merthyr1831@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 hour ago

oops, all the subs i accidentally banned except for a handful that coincidentally all seem to be related to hating on elon musk. peculiar.

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 74 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Chtorrr comments on R/porn & R/rule34 are banned, tissue paper sales pulmmet! However, these are not the only bans, so what's going on?

I'm surprised the comment allows replies.

You guys really do think your users are stupid, don't you? A "bug" that only affected only porn subs and those that the fascists in power deem against their puritanical views? No, you just hit the "mass ban" button before you had your excuse to justify it in place.

I can’t be arsed to find it now, but a while back there was an effort post in the subredditdrama sub about how a bunch of porn subreddits were being taken down due to “moderation” issues and at the same time porn subreddit moderation was getting consolidated under a small handful of power mods that were gatekeeping accounts promoting newer/less established OnlyFans and other such sites. Theory was that reddit-logo was purging the amateur nature of the NSFW side of the site and making it more “professional” adult content in order to be more palatable to investors.

[–] MarmiteLover123@hexbear.net 29 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

Honestly all of the mods of the porn subreddits should have been cleaned out/purged years ago, have Reddit admins take over, and implement actual age verification systems for NSFW content creators. But Reddit won't do that because it will tank traffic and cost money. So we're stuck with the current situation.

They always start with it as a "bug".

“Yeah banning porn completely annihilated Tumblr through a completely unforced error but surely that can’t happen to me!”

[–] MarmiteLover123@hexbear.net 32 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

At the same time the current situation is also unsustainable. You cannot rely on Reddit mods to properly control these communities for obvious reasons. There's no proper age verification, bots run rampant, that's a recipe for disaster and criminal activity (and I mean serious crimes like CSAM, human trafficking, money laundering, etc, not piracy or giving someone 20 bucks who then used the 20 to buy drugs) on drug and porn subreddits. But I don't think Reddit will ban it, they'll just cover it up better.

[–] MarmiteLover123@hexbear.net 39 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (7 children)

The porn ban has been inevitable for years, but Reddit did nothing about it. There's no proper age verification for posting nude content, mod abuse, spam everywhere, extreme fetish subs allowed to run rampant 4chan style with hundreds of thousands of subscribers, and Reddit has just swept it all under the rug. They definitely had this ban ready to go. I think it'll be reversed, because without porn Reddit site traffic will crash. They'll just try hide it better, pornographic content is already shadowbanned from all and popular and default search for years now, so more measures like that.

[–] gwysibo@hexbear.net 6 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

what extreme fetishes are you thinking of?

hand-holding, headpats, overthrowing the government, walking along a beach

I'm sure this was unintentional but this comment has this energy:

Where did that bring you? back-to-me volcel-judge

Seriously though, very funny to see goonicide, as concerning as it is that this was ordained by Elon feeling slightly threatened.
