Following changes to its API access, users are forced to log in on the official Reddit app if they want to view NSFW content on mobile.
What’s a Reddit?
A piece of shit now
Turddit
Deadit.

Not just porn! Since reddit only has one such tag you can apply to posts, many subreddits were using the NSFW tag for a wider variety of reasons such as spoilers, content which may contain unsettling material (aka “triggers”), and more!
The stoners on Reddit got screwed - many of the weed subs got the banhammer, and the rest got NSFW’d because spez wants Reddit as G-rated as Disney for the IPO.
It’s not all NSFW. The Synology community I followed went full NSFW in protest and I can still view their subreddit. I cannot view subreddits such as watchitfortheplot. So somehow Reddit is differentiating.
Well I know they forced some subreddits go back to SFW if it was obvious the NSFW was just to protest. Maybe that’s the case for the subreddit you’re looking at?
NSFW means no ads as well.
I also remember the announcement was sexually explicit content won’t be served through the api, so they must have a way to differentiate then.
Shit platform hits rock bottom and continues digging
Digg-ing
This is the true final blow to third party apps.
I noticed they did something similar to the mobile website. Even with appropriate content blockers there’s absolutely no way you can see sexually explicit content on mobile without their app.
They even do the same thing with SFW posts, they just say it’s “unreviewed content” or whatever.
You still can if you’re a subreddit mod, so I just did this:
- Create your own private sub
- You become a mod! Yay!
- NSFW now works on 3rd party app
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.
Isn’t that how Tumblr also died?
🎶 crackin’ down on fun, over at Reddit🎶
Lmao this puritanical turn from all these tech companies over the last 5-6 years I don’t get it. All they are going to do is speed self-immolation. What is happening to the internet.

You can’t look at Reddit at all on third party apps now. Or did I miss a change to their API change?
This kills the platform.
Well, actually, you can view it through Infinity.
If you own a NSFW sub or are a moderator of one, you still have the possibility to see NSFW content over third-party apps / API
You just need to be a moderator of any subreddit. The subreddit itself doesn’t need to be NSFW. The idea is that moderators could have a need to evaluate NSFW content on user profiles to make moderation decisions.
Hi I’m totally new here since Reddit banned freedom of speech so is a nsfw even a thing here? How you guys like it I think Reddit was kinda better in some aspect but I do enjoy this service as well
