Reddit is gatekeeping NSFW content on mobile, trying to force their app (sh.itjust.works)

I tried visiting r/pics (which was recently marked NSFW in a protest of malicious compliance) and was blocked by this message. Sorry if it’s already been posted- I can’t figure out search too well.

I even tried looking at a post where they "haven't reviewed the content yet" so they couldn't be sure of adult content, so you had to log in anyways. Like, come on.

Good riddance.

Just sucks that Reddit has a lot of specific info about things, hopefully that'll change over time.

Spez wants to be a cyber pimp.

Locking nsfw to the official app means that he gets to monetize women's bodies. This even extends to the onlyfans spam, which means he's also a hypocrite since that means he's profiting from another site's data (by his standard of who owns the data).

Did you notice who doesn't get any of the money from that at all? The regular users that aren't on onlyfans. He's pimping all of them out.

lmao wow, I think they'll be surprised how much it's going to hurt them when they start gatekeeping their own porn

They may not care so much about that since they don’t make any ad revenue from those subreddits
