Something big is happening, as Reddit seems to have purged literally every NSFW sub they know. Reason is always "unmoderated" despite some of the banned subreddits being fully moderated.


Edit: seems to have been a bug in automation (thanks @[email protected]):

It's still a good reminder on how quickly a community (or communities) thousands of people enjoy and in some cases rely upon can disappear.

Yeah this worked out great for OnlyFans, Tumblr, and Flickr. At least OnlyFans was smart enough to remember which side their bread was buttered on.

the tumblr one is so funny because yahoo promised not to screw it up and then they did

And now there's still tons of NSFW content, they just started labeling it as NSFT (not safe for Tumblr) to get around the auto censors

My experience is that modern NSFW on tumblr is just porn bots. You used to get really nice, high quality slutty art for whatever TV show or movie character tripped your trigger. Now they have an Ai bot that's trained itself to flag black and white sfw sketches but not straight up literal tiddy drop videos with spam links below them.

All thanks to Apple's censorship of their forced App Store, which is arguably the worst thing to ever happen to computing. Zero percent joking.

What would be left if onlyfans got rid of porn? Wtf. I'm not paying to watch someone fix rust on their car.

I'm watching someone fix the rust on their car, sexually.

I think that was temporary and something to do eith their parent company or payment processor and not a real policy change, but I may be misremembering.
