Eh, honestly I don't care about the porn, but with a lot of subreddits flying the NSFW flag just to piss off advertisers, that makes life a lot more shitty. shrugs Oh well, just one more reason to make myself scarce there.

Admins sent out letters saying to change back to safe for work or the mods will lose mod power and be banned.

Some are falling in line. Others are not.

Not sure how many backup mods they can have for $0.

Pretty sure once subreddits that lose their mods are forced to be "sfw" people are gonna spam nsfw content because their moderation will be weak.

Steve Huffman declared war on the internet. Sony tried that once. Didn't go so well.

It still works using my own API key

[–] cousinofjah@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

are there apps that are letting users create their own API keys and plug them in?

Revanced Manager allows you to patch a few third party apps with your own API key if you're on android

There are community tweaks, especially for Apollo, that let you insert your API key.

They need to get the coomers into their app with "incognito mode"

I still can. Using Boost unpatched. Am I lucky?

[–] Spud29@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think so, I finally had to uninstall Boost today after it wouldn't load posts anymore. I was surprised it was working this long past July 1st even though they said it wasn't.

[–] Rouxibeau@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

My boost loaded a lemme plug and stopped working, but now is working again. Idk when it will die, just trying to get ahead of it.

@L4s In mobile browser still works, but they already said that the mobile website will be killed.

I just tested with Relay. I can view NSFW subs. I should note my account seems to be flagged as NSFW for posting to interestingasfuck after it went NSFW.
