This includes some porn subreddits as well as subreddits like /r/Drugs. Apparently due to being “unmoderated”, but some were not. What are your thoughts?

Edit: apparently also subreddits like /r/transgender_surgeries is banned too. Definitely feels politically motivated.

The NSFW subs were mostly onlyfans girls giving us a sneak peek of what we can see if we pay them.

Actually not a huge loss.

My thought exactly. Apparently people are using that stinky site for something that’s not just porn?

Where else is there to go when I want to read content that’s an unmarked advertisement?

Oh right, the NYT/WSJ/WaPo exists, nevermind.

At least reddits unmarked advertisements don’t paywall you.
