Following changes to its API access, users are forced to log in on the official Reddit app if they want to view NSFW content on mobile.

Obvious? Why are we talking about this still? Access was terminated pay walled almost a week ago.

Even with the paywall, sexually explicit content was still available through the API until yesterday.

I am surprised any 3rd party clients remained connected for that to matter.

It takes a while to get major changes like this to make it’s way to the live branch. If this didn’t hit at the same time as API costs, then that likely means there was a bug preventing the restriction on nsfw content
