Umm. I just tried old.reddit on a "gonewild" subreddit with no login even, and it was fine. Now I'm sure they'll patch it out. But, seems to be an easy workaround as of right now.

Reddit stopped being any good when that guy doing a batman/joker role reversal writing prompt stopped posting

Is it just a selfie? I can still access NSFW reddit content without even logging in though.

Is it only a selfie? AI gen go brrr?

[–] rozodru@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

just use one of the libreddit instances like safereddit.com or something. I mean why would you need to comment in a NSFW subreddit? worse comes to worse just use a VPN like mullvad. So many ways to circumvent this.

I can't tell you how tired I am of hearing about all the absolutely inane batshit coming out of the UK. Holy shit your country is a dumpster fire.
