It’s a shame really, Porn, Interesting posts labeled as NSFW and NSFW profiles pretty much gone.

They ask you to verify with Persona who they say they keep your information for 3 days

    Even after I left Reddit during the API fiasco, I did leave around an alt for sex and sexuality discussions. Nuked it some time afterwards when I noted the amount of real people talking had gone down really dramatically. Can’t imagine the situation improving since.

    Age verification? Welp, that does it - can’t see why anyone would bother using it now!

    I left after the last unfair ban. It’s, conservatively, 70% bots at this point.

    I have this fantasy where everyone in the world’s kinks/fetishes get leaked at the same time. Since everyone has been doing it for years, we all just accept the freaks that everyone is, and nobody has to hide it anymore. Worldwide sexual liberation ensues, misogyny dies.

    Inb4 some Linux nerd tells me about their proxies, everyone already knows you’re a freak.

      I wish that would change anything, but unfortunately I don’t think it would. As a borrowed observation a lot of people like the shame associated with their kinks, and especially so for the ones who have a lot of social power. But also there are plenty of vanilla and sex repulsed asexual people out there and those who lack understanding of the rest of us can be extremely judgemental about it. Sometimes the strict enforcers of prudishness aren’t denying too much, they just don’t understand that they too are atypical.

      But yeah it sounds like a really nice fantasy.

      My fantasies include such things as women not recoiling in horror when I speak to them, and even going on a date with me.

      Freaky, dirty, wild stuff.

    Or just don’t use Reddit. Like I haven’t since I deleted my 15 year account in 2023 after that piece of shit, Spez, decided that money and enshittification mattered more to him than treating long-running app developers properly.

      It’s still crazy to me that they absolutely torpedoed their site contribution quality by doing that.

      like I guess it didn’t really matter because it was already half bots, but still

        It was a fun site while it lasted. Then it became garbage. The only thing that could be worse for Reddit is if Musk ever buys it.

        Oh I don’t want to make an account there.

        Sometimes I get linked something that would otherwise be blocked.

        I only read it via Redlib, and it’s hilarious to see people who are relatively new users comment things like “wait, this site is bullshit!” as they discover all the things that drove me away years ago.

      All I saw there (here?) was some really tame n boring crap. Reddit had every kink under the sun covered. Still waiting for that to happen here, but I don’t think it’s going to.

        Literally all I can find is the normal “gonewild” stuff, with only a couple extra communities beyond that like “assholebehindthong.” There are a couple pee communities, and even a futa/futanari comm, but they’re so inactive it’s ridiculous.

        Which is a shame because the futa ones were popping off right after the API bullshit from a couple years ago.

        Well it’s like that because fedinsfw.app is in its early days, but i actually felt that plenty of the stuff there is sort of kinky or extreme. There’s just not a lot of stuff there full stop. So I would recommend you all start archiving your favourite stuff from reddit to prevent other people having the same reaction.

        If reddit nsfw is inaccessible without giving your ID, i think you can get to the nsfw stuff via redlib? See redlib.catsarch.com and redlib.perennialte.ch
