Only the new Reddit, old.reddit.com still works for that too.

Though I'm not sure how long that'll last. I would be surprised if old.reddit.com is still functional in a couple of years. When it gets removed, or when it bit rots to the point that it's no longer really feasible to use it, I'm off that site. New Reddit doesn't work for me.

> BTW Reddit is now verifying your ID with Persona before you can open anything it thinks is NSFW.

I think this may depend on your country, I've never seen this (Spain), not on the new website nor old.reddit.com or anywhere else, NSFW or not.

Not when I open it from a web browser without being logged in. It just ask if I'm 18 and if I click yes, it lets me see the post (including images).

What’s strange is that they’ll try to verify with Persona even after Apple has shared an age range with them.

If you trust Apple, why verify with Persona above that? If you don’t trust Apple, why bother integrating the Apple age check? The answer must be something silly like “we did it because Apple asked us to but we don’t trust what Apple tells us because we’re not sure if it’s compliant”.

It’s too bad, because I trust Apple with my data way more than Reddit and infinitely more than Persona. I hope Reddit comes to their senses because I’m never giving my data to Persona.

This is right up there with amazon changing imdb.com, so that you need to actually be logged in to read any of the reviews on a movie.

I see that and I instantly go to rotten tomatoes, pure idiocy, pure stupid. You can just tell when those in charge, never ever dog food.

often people make a sub, it gets popular because of specific content. then the original mod gets banned, now their sub is orphan and reddit team assigns it to someone else.

many times you'll notice the new mod became active as a contributor on specific sub only 2-3 days before the OG mod gets banned and sub declared orphan.

Coincidence?

How can reddit even hand over a sub to someone who has nothing to do with a community? Simply because they install and control who controls the sub.

Mods get "comment/post removal" power, so they use it to shape the community towards specific "narrative", there is no audit trail for any mod specific actions unless you are a mod you perhaps can't see what all a mod is doing on a sub.

Also, they can simply make an automod/bot rule which simply removes your comment by creating a rule with your username after that you'll not know your comment is gone but others will not see it!
