Reddit Will Now Be Covered In Ads For Reddit

Isn't it already? Get Reddit Mobile! Use the app! Why aren't you using the app? Open this link in the app! Pleeeeeease let us flood you with cream cheese and He Gets Us ads! App!

My favorite is that they don't let you look at porn without using the app now. They have clearly wandered so far from their native path.

Huh, wonder if they'll get sued by states that require age verification to look at porn.

Probably not, most of those bills had a clause that if less than a certain percentage of your content wasn't porn than the site didn't need age verification. Twitter is in the same category. No idea about how it applies to some of the porn focused instances on the fediverse though, but I'm guessing they're so small that they won't be targeted unless their servers are actually located in the states with the age verification laws.

I think you can still use old.reddit to view nsfw if you're already signed in but it's been awhile since I tried

Old reddit is unusable on mobile because it has practically no responsiveness. You have to zoom in a million percent to press any links or buttons.
