Reddit is purging NSFW subs as well as trans-related subreddits (edit: bans are being undone)

People are forgetting this all springs from the Heritage Foundation and Project 2025.

THEY are the ones pulling the strings behind Trump. The corporations and billionaires funding that (not Musk) that are shelling out the cash and have been since the Reagan era.

Folks who think that the Pornhub ban in a few states and the ID request in others is the new norm are going to be in for a surprise when a nationwide ban gets passed shortly. That has always been on the agenda for them.

It’s a Christian Extremist agenda (think Handmaids Tale) and all you fuckers who voted for him or didn’t vote in retaliation allowed this shit to happen.

I cannot believe the amount shocked people I’ve ran across at work recently, who are Republicans who are still in denial and still think things are going to get better - or have some sort of bizarre belief that Trump is going to start suddenly making everything cheaper for everyone. Idiots!

Reddit sadly houses a lot of information and is found anywhere else on the internet. Even here on lemmy, we have hardly added a fraction of the information still house on Reddit.

Isn't NSFW stuff a big part of all reddit OC content and the reason many still have an account there?

Kinda feels like a warning tbh. Or they're trying to be another tumblr.

My thoughts? Stupid that they had not left yet.

On the data hoarder subreddit

I have absolutely no idea what these companies are doing.

Are they afraid of Trump? Are they afraid of Musk? Are they afraid of the combination of both?

Idk, I thought two incompetent idiots like them would be no threat to the corpos of America, even in the oval office. But maybe I overestimated the corpos.

Or are they jumping on the band wagon voluntarily? It's so weird to me...

Looks like reddit is using the momentum of starting sub bans as an opportunity to ban things that might land them in hot water legally or politically

• Rule34, and anime porn is banned because r34 is based on existing copyrighted material (and so are the anime subs probably)
• Drugs because of the "war of drugs".
• transgender_surgeries because the current US administration is profoundly transphobic.

I assume they will most likely not come over here because there are users like this mod:

I got banned for 7 days for posting a Luigi cap

spez wants a cabinet position.

I will love seeing them try to ban noncredibledefense for having LGBTQIA+ flag on it's profile, having a lot of r34 with planes (if you don't know the sub, just don't try to imagine, it will hurt your brain XD), having some gory content (like the meat cube and once again don't try to imagine XD).

And they are pro-NATO which is something the current administration is not really fond of (including Musk who has been mocked for multiple weeks after his speech about drones vs planes...).

If it really happens, all 400k NCD readers, there is a big NCD community on lemmy so Welcome!

Drugs prob saved my friends and I, we never had a bad situation because of reddit I knew dosages, I knew not to do what old top posts had done, just lowered anxiety and got me not to be stupid.

. Edit 2: seems like at least some (?) bans are being undone, like the above mentioned ones.

Is it cover for a targeted purge?

Let's see what subs stay banned.

Go ask Tumblr how removing the porn went.

If their goal was banning porn and trans sub's, they are either slow rolling it or doing a terrible job. There is plenty of porn unbanned, and r/transgonewild is still up. I guess we'll have to wait and see though.

I think it's time for me to block posts from this community. Most of us came here as reddit refugees. No one on Lemmy should be suprised about the rapid enshitification of that platform. The best thing anyone can do is walk away completely and don't look back.

Seems like some of the bans are being undone? Testing the waters? Banning everything until a mod steps forward and says they were actively modding?

Reddit has slowly banned everything that drove ppl to it

My thoughts? I hope they feel welcome here.

Given that they started unbanning some of these, $20 says these dumbasses plugged in a new “AI mod” without testing it first.

RIP Reddit

I tried twice to recover one of my favorite NSFW subs that was deleted due to being "unmoderated" but was denied both times. The sub was fairly active and I was on it daily and didn't notice any real spam problems. There is a channel for it here on Lemmy NSFW but it's not really active yet since it was a niche interest.

Olympus has fallen folks, r/rule34 has been banned!

I never thought I'd see the day.

Is it time to train some Hunyuan Video/Flux loras or Spez pleasing Trump?

I think it may be. They can’t ban them all by signature if they’re unique.

Even took out AskRedditnsfw.

It's okay though admins may reverse it...
