got the notification to verify my age when trying to access NSFW posts or profiles already for a few weeks now, but as of today my whole account is blocked unless I verify. I guess that’s it then. Based in Austria btw, so there is no specific law in place that forces Reddit to implement this and I will definetly not give my personal information to Persona, a company that belongs to Peter Thiels Palantir group.
on mobile they are far more intrusive, when you backspace they reload the page, and sends you to the top of the feed on old mobile, and zooms in for no reason, its designed to make old reddit as unpleasant as possible so you are forced to use the new reddit UI, which is worst, because in the newer one, it eventually slows the loading page for so long you have to close the browser to reset it. they eventually want people to use the APP, so they can datamine your device as well.
