Reddit purges all NSFW subreddits (pawb.social)

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.

hopefully the fact lemmy is more decentralized should avoid another digg or reddit situation

Worst case you bail for a different instance, ideally one that doesn't defederate if your goal is not to have content blocked from you.
