Something big is happening, as Reddit seems to have purged literally every NSFW sub they know. Reason is always "unmoderated" despite some of the banned subreddits being fully moderated.

It's not only porn. Today i google-image searched a skin condition. Most results were reddit links, but i wasn't able to open any of them without their app as the subreddits were apparently 18+!

I wasn't able to view any of the information as i refuse to install the app. Google should deprioritize the results that can't be viewed in the browser.

Just request desktop mode, that bypasses it.

I know that trick, i just rarely use it and forgot about it 🤦‍♂️

That's understandable. There are a whole lot of little tricks and workarounds you've gotta constantly keep in your head and recall on the spot to try and navigate the crap that is the modern Internet. In addition to all the other life stuff we've gotta remember!

You should still be able to navigate to those posts by changing the link to old.reddit.com. But I assume that will go away at some point too.

Or just switching to Show Desktop Site

And the Firefox extension "old Reddit redirect" does it for you!
