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.

they are continuing to digg their own grave.

you need to take a photo of your balls to use reddit now and new accounts cannot login to old reddit as this feature is now restricted to only existing accounts that are older

[-] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 3 points 12 hours ago

Even my old account isn't working on old anymore. Except on my phone for some reason (possibly just haven't logged back into it on that since whatever changed). Makes it really easy not to hang around on that site after reading whatever drags me there in the first place.

no porn for you 🎻

I guess you haven't read the text under my screenshot - this doesn't happen on NSFW subs or posts anymore, I cannot access ANYTHING anymore, the complete account is blocked unless I verify.

just use redreader like everyone else, and stop with the drama

[-] Malica@lemmy.zip 29 points 1 day ago

It's better here anyway. Spez has banned everyone and there's only bots left.

[-] Mormegil@lemmy.world 4 points 20 hours ago

I already made this account a while ago, but never really got into Lemmy so much, since it's so damn hard to post videos here - that is the main reason I still used Reddit more - you can just drop videos there without having to use other video platforms that require you to make an account too,...

I will not play games that require tpm and secure boot, and I will not use software that requires any sort of identity verification to use. the internet is simply a tool for entertainment for most of my uses, communication is optional.

I didn’t think there was anyone left on Reddit but bots

[-] brem@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

The oldest redditors got shadow banned because their posts were too valuable to the IPO to show up as blocked or deleted user (the story varries, but my friend ended up getting banned for joking about putting a lock on one of those uhauls full of proud boys (back when they were renting uhauls before Uhaul said they couldn't anymore)

Those of us here originally, are the ones who deleted their accounts, contrary to what reddit believed would happen.

I know at least one of you will read this, and I am here to receive a powerful high five.

[-] Dicska@lemmy.world 1 points 19 hours ago

I know two people still using it. Thing is, quite a lot of gaming communities are pretty much dead here, while there are still enough flesh and bone users on reddit (plus eight times as many bots, but there will always be someone to respond within a day if you have a question).

Of course it's not like there are only these two options and nothing else, but where would you go to for decently paced discussion? Honest question: I had left reddit a long time ago, but I won't find pre-existing answers on Lemmy for a good number of games, and most of the communities here seem to be bone dry.

It's always interesting to see what it takes for someone to leave reddit. It wasn't all the bullshit before, but this is was over the line for this user. How much more can they keep getting away with before a tipping point? The standards people have today are so eroded.

[-] Scrollone@lemmy.zip 4 points 19 hours ago

It's like the boiling frog problem
