Reddit has begun rolling out mandatory age verification for any NSFW content, as well as for some social media functions, if the AI determines you might be under a certain age.

Another good day to be on Lemmy... until the surveillance capitalist tech overlords lobby enough to get their great firewall of the West, anyway.

Stop using it. The only way to force them to revert this bullshit is if they start losing revenue. And by them I mean, all of them.

    Yeah I’m always confused when people come here to complain about Reddit. Like, you already did it. You switched. Now move on with your life.

    Like many things in life, it's not necessarily an either-or situation. Personally, Reddit is still enormously useful to me for a variety of reasons, and it's well worth putting up with various difficulties in order to keep getting the benefits.

    And I say that as someone who's put hundreds of hours in to content creation here, the past three years.

    Hi, I do have Reddit accounts and they don't want me to delete my accounts! I tried to delete but the submit button for deletion is grayed out. Help.
