Did I miss something? Or just a joke about the future of reddit because obviously they will go for it at some point.
When I go to a subreddit a popup appears over similar to those news sites asking me to either login or open in app. So it's kinda the present
That's for NSFW communities. Since the protests, quite a lot of communities are still marked as NSFW, even if they're not, in reality.
So what your saying is that one of the very tools that people used to protest, is now being used to perpetuate the very thing they were protesting?
Why am I not surprised.
Reddit has always required login to view NSFW. ETA: Whelp, I was wrong.
When using current reddit UI, you need to log in to "verify you are over 18".
When using old.reddit.com you can proceed with a simple click on "Confirm over 18".
