Reddit is purging NSFW subs as well as trans-related subreddits

And a screenshot of the post on Reddit, from which the meme is quoting:

Brace for Rexxit 2.0. This is not drill! Granted, most of the Redfugees will be going to Lemmynsfw (I helped by dropping a link in, we'll see if that lasts) but as long as we get them out... I suppose you could call it missionary position work.

Hopefully LemmyNSFW and Blahaj can handle the additional traffic. Reddit's loss, our gain.

[-] henfredemars@infosec.pub 43 points 2 years ago

I hope users know that Lemmy exists. Reddit suppresses discussion of alternatives and usually bans links. Word-of-mouth is slower but it will get there eventually.

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 22 points 2 years ago

Reddit suppresses discussion of alternatives and usually bans links.

It can vary. lemmy.world and join-lemmy links are often removed, to the point I think some subs flag them automatically. Links to other instances see solid. I just checked and I have made a dozen posts on Reddit with links to Lemmy in the last day and they are all still up. I will push my luck too far soon though, I'm sure.

Discuss.online isn't safe anymore

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 6 points 2 years ago

Interesting. feddit.uk isn't causing issues, yet.

[-] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

Maybe because it is more of a drop in replacement for American users.

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 3 points 2 years ago

Oh indeed. We aren't exactly a threat.

[-] SoupBrick@pawb.social 55 points 2 years ago

[-] eerongal@ttrpg.network 79 points 2 years ago

Actually, reddit is not coming. That's kinda the whole problem outlined above.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 28 points 2 years ago

Hi-ooooooo!

[-] AwesomeLowlander@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

First they will come. Then the second coming will occur.

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 7 points 2 years ago

Brilliant! Deserves its own thread here.

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 40 points 2 years ago

It feels like the porn bans may be misdirection - it's the quiet shanking during the prison riot you have to keep an eye out for:

First they came for r/Discuit...

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 2 years ago

Wait a sec, I thought Discuit had been banned for a while now? I remember discussing it with a Discuit member on /r/RedditAlternatives

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 2 points 2 years ago

I don't know, never visited.

[-] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 6 points 2 years ago

Wow this recent news just keeps on giving.

[-] dance_ninja@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

What was that sub for?

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 9 points 2 years ago

Talking about Discuit. A Reddit alternative.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing ~~the world~~ online platforms ~~he didn't exist~~ they didn't need nsfw content

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 15 points 2 years ago

That pussy is out of the sack and can't be stuffed back in.

[-] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago

cage

“Missionary position work” is brilliant, btw.

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 5 points 2 years ago

You're welcome.

what's a reddit? is this like myspace?

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 16 points 2 years ago

It's like a digg.

[-] UKFilmNerd@feddit.uk 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I wondered where some of my favourite Reddits had gone. Luckily they returned, now I can get back to discussing and sharing serious topics with other people online in a civilised manner.

Looks around cautiously

unzips 🤣

[-] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 years ago

Was a glitch according to an admin. They are restoring the subs.

[-] curbstickle@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 2 years ago

Yeah.... "A glitch".

Most likely a test run to see how significant the response would be, and an indicator of where things are going.

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 4 points 2 years ago

Olympus Hasn't Fallen! This was indeed a drill. However, we learn with every drill.

[-] zephorah@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago

Im probably going to regret this but what is r/rule34?

[-] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 2 years ago

If it exists, there is porn of it. If there isn't, there will be.

[-] Maestro@fedia.io 14 points 2 years ago

That second half is rule 35 actually

[-] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 years ago

Good to know. Thanks

[-] saltesc@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Or you can Google Image search it.

[-] Emperor@feddit.uk 10 points 2 years ago

Or you can Google Image search it.

Not today Satan.

Does anyone wank to threats to US president? or is that too pervy for interwebs?

Olympus? Babylon, at best.

[-] argh_another_username@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

Speaking of porn, what happened to r/celebnsfw? Only one mod posts, can’t scroll far, but if you search, old posts are there.
