You also can't look at reddit on any third-party app now.

I'm still able to on Relay. The dev announced he has to move to a subscription model but its still free for the time being and seems to work fine still.

I am Relay too and just checked. All NSFW posts are now gone. A "Go to Reddit to view mature content" post is all that returns. Gaddamit reddit. I really hope they burn and they end up in business text books in the future to teach future CEOs how not to run a company.

There won't be any space left in the book after they cover elon musk.

If you become the mod of a subreddit, you can still get NSFW content through the still functioning third party apps. Just create you own subreddit. Not exactly sure why it works, something along the lines of moderators still need to view NSFW posts or something like that. Wierd how they say you need to use the official app to verify your age, but there is no age verification on becoming a moderator.

The Internet is for porn. Reddit does not allow porn. Therefore, reddit is not on the Internet.

A valid and sound argument, if I've ever heard one.

or use old.reddit.com?

Honestly, i thought I would miss reddit more, but I haven't been back since I moved here and haven't thought about it one bit. I expect I'll still end up on reddit occasionally when I search for something, but I don't see myself ever posting there again.

It shows up in my search results but I refuse to click it. May just blacklist it at the dns level at this point, like a malicious site.

you can always browse it thru a privacy-friendly frontend that scrapes the site, like libreddit or teddit. This way you get any answers or whatever you might want, no ads or bloat, and reddit inc doesn't benefit

You definitely can.

You just need to login to reddit in a browser quickly and make a private subreddit.

Third party app and NSFW access restored: they seem to have excepted mods from the changes
