So it's basically you pay to Reddit yet without the perks of Reddit premium. You pay just to use 3rd party app.

Don't forget that the API won't provide access to any NSFW sub. (There's a lot of reasons a sub might have NSFW posts besides just pr0n.) So Reddit literally expects people to pay for less content. It's absolutely bananas...

Good lord I don't think I've seen "pr0n" in like a decade.

You just unlocked a memory for me! Did you ever try the puzzle game notpron?

Lol it's funny people keep bringing up the NSFW as if everyone is going to be outraged. I mean I don't care if people like to watch gangbangs or whatever but I have absolutely no interest in porn. I'd rather look at some cuddling, hand holding, tender smooches and romance. But I do not like having to turn off NSFW and miss out on all the non sexual NSFW content on here.

You're right the porn is the least of it, how many askreddit threads are nsfw and many many more subreddits that have nsfw language. It'll be a very hollow experience using reddit on a third party app after the 1st.

I read something that explained that banning NSFW from the API would make it more difficult for mod tools meant to identify situations where someone who posted a lot of hardcore porn tried to post in a sub aimed at young or vulnerable users (I think r/teenagers was the example given). So it isn’t just about being able to access porn, but also about being able to identify potential problem users for certain subs.

yeah. the vaping subs were NSFW. as were some of the tattoo subs.

[–] SoPunny@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Lots of advice/relationship/drama subs have nsfw content. Think JNMIL is permanently nsfw now.

It's still a more pleasant experience than using the Reddit app though.
