Banned? DM Wmill to appeal.
No anti-nautilism posts. See: Eco-fascism Primer
Slop posts go in c/slop. Don't post low-hanging fruit here.
https://www.reddit.com/r/BannedSubs/
edit: Reddit admin says "this is a bug and has been reversed".
r/IsElonDeadYet is still banned though and r/whitepeopletwitter is still under a 72-hour temp ban for "glorifying violence or doxing" against Elon's DOGE crew.
/r/theadamfriedlandshow being in this list is hilarious
Adam was the bug that got everyone banned
"r/smalldickporn has been banned" Lmao, some people just can't catch a brake
small dick problems
Wtf? Admin says all of the bans were a bug
I'm surprised the comment allows replies.
You guys really do think your users are stupid, don't you? A "bug" that only affected only porn subs and those that the fascists in power deem against their puritanical views? No, you just hit the "mass ban" button before you had your excuse to justify it in place.
I can’t be arsed to find it now, but a while back there was an effort post in the subredditdrama sub about how a bunch of porn subreddits were being taken down due to “moderation” issues and at the same time porn subreddit moderation was getting consolidated under a small handful of power mods that were gatekeeping accounts promoting newer/less established OnlyFans and other such sites. Theory was that 
was purging the amateur nature of the NSFW side of the site and making it more “professional” adult content in order to be more palatable to investors.
Honestly all of the mods of the porn subreddits should have been cleaned out/purged years ago, have Reddit admins take over, and implement actual age verification systems for NSFW content creators. But Reddit won't do that because it will tank traffic and cost money. So we're stuck with the current situation.
"my account got hacked"
“The controller got unplugged”
"It was actually my little brother playing"
"I was lagging"
They always start with it as a "bug".
Literally 4891
oops, all the subs i accidentally banned except for a handful that coincidentally all seem to be related to hating on elon musk. peculiar.
r/IsElonDeadYet not unbanned 
Where did that bring you? 
Seriously though, very funny to see goonicide, as concerning as it is that this was ordained by Elon feeling slightly threatened.
How was this connected to Elon?
He was going on and on about how one of the subs that gave names of his School Shooter 6 had committed a crime by posting their names and no other information (and people were cheering for bad things to happen to them)
Serious answer: the guy running the Reddit lies twitter account, which has been doing "exposes" on Reddit, is most definitely followed by Musk. Yesterday he made a post showing just how bad the porn situation is on Reddit. Musk definitely saw that. Reddit probably got a phone call afterwards from Elon Musk. The same thing happened with white people twitter, Reddit lies did a compilation of all the death threats and fedposting on there, Elon probably saw it and told Reddit to get rid.
Too bad the mass banning of porn subs was a mistake. All digital porn should be banned and the gooners must retvrn to magazines hidden in the woods to reconnect to nature
Going out back to make a withdrawal from the spank-bank my neighbor, Eddie, keeps in the whack-shack.
Tragic to see such goonerphonia on the left 
“Yeah banning porn completely annihilated Tumblr through a completely unforced error but surely that can’t happen to me!”
At the same time the current situation is also unsustainable. You cannot rely on Reddit mods to properly control these communities for obvious reasons. There's no proper age verification, bots run rampant, that's a recipe for disaster and criminal activity (and I mean serious crimes like CSAM, human trafficking, money laundering, etc, not piracy or giving someone 20 bucks who then used the 20 to buy drugs) on drug and porn subreddits. But I don't think Reddit will ban it, they'll just cover it up better.
Lmao how will Reddit ever recover from this? Hint: They won't
it was just the faulty automation again, we were able to restore most of the subs but not all (like the trans ones) for reasons unfortunately
Yeah this smells like cover for banning trans subs
They say it's undone but still wouldn't be shocked if some trans ones are left banned
It looks like r/transgender_surgeries is back up at least.
Reminder to back up tg surgery info
The porn ban has been inevitable for years, but Reddit did nothing about it. There's no proper age verification for posting nude content, mod abuse, spam everywhere, extreme fetish subs allowed to run rampant 4chan style with hundreds of thousands of subscribers, and Reddit has just swept it all under the rug. They definitely had this ban ready to go. I think it'll be reversed, because without porn Reddit site traffic will crash. They'll just try hide it better, pornographic content is already shadowbanned from all and popular and default search for years now, so more measures like that.
I feel like this issue arises a lot more frequently then it should. Didnt Tumblr have similar problems years ago? How do major social media sites keep "accidentally" having almost 0 guardrails in place for nude content. Almost as if they dont want to fix the problem.
A lot of the time, the problem is that when you start putting specific systems in place that moderate porn explicitly, you're liable for those systems failing; whereas no bespoke moderation at all lets you wash your hands and only remove things when it's a problem.
You're actually not liable for those systems failing in the legal sense. As an "interactive service provider", you are protected under section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, even if you are engaged in some moderation of the third-party content you are hosting. It also means that, as the provider, you have the right to "restrict access" to any content you deem objectionable. However, they have to balance this with the fact that they must also ensure that they do not distribute pornographic material to anyone under the age of 18. How they do that, however, isn't prescribed by the law I think, and so it's on a "good faith effort" kind of footing.
No one likes Section 230. Progressives think that it allows for a site to be absolved of the crime of harboring dangerous people (Nazis). Conservatives believe that it allows for a site to harbor people spreading propaganda against traditional values and suppressing "whiteness" or whatever. Following 2016 and Covid, broadly, both political spectrums believe that the provision gives platforms no incentive to crackdown on "misinformation", or to partake in the curation of misinformation unrestricted.
The reality is, Section 230 has been holding the door closed for more aggressive policing of speech and expression online since 1994. Everyone hates it, but no one wants to get rid of it because getting rid of it cuts all parties in the process.
Rhetoric around removing Section 230 is often what drives sites to tighten their controls. Every time it comes up in the media, it is because there is something going on at the federal level. This could be a signal that the feds are going to start this "conversation" up again, but this time through the guise of more explicitly defining what counts as "pornographic" content (to include Trans content of any kind), or to attempt to mandate a federal porn ID system like they do in states across the country. Both of these things might be happening at the same time. I'm pretty sure Reddit doesn't require you to enter state ID information into their site to access it in those states, so somehow they're running just outside the bounds of those ID laws.
Because it is deliberate. The whole appeal of posting porn on Reddit, is that unlike proper porn sites like onlyfans where you have to provide proper age verification such as an ID or drivers licence, which will then be linked to your real name, all you need to do is convince some Reddit mod that you're over 18 on a "verification post". It's a much lower barrier to entry, which is how Reddit gets people to post on there. The Reddit algorithm is also much easier to manipulate than other sites, so creators that want to make money can just spam their posts everywhere that link to a PayPal or paid onlyfans account in their bio. Extreme fetish content not allowed on mainstream sites is also just allowed to exist on Reddit. Such a system is ripe for abuse of course, but Reddit doesn't care because of the huge amount of traffic it generates for their website. They just try sweep it under the rug everytime. Look at what happened to Tumblr when they were forced to deal with the porn issue, the site was never the same afterwards.
First they came for the Coomers
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Coomer
Then they came for the Monster Girls
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Monster Girl
Then they came for the Adam Friedland stans
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a center-left podcaster
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me
A new migration to lemmy? 
I am not looking forward to the gooners.
What's wrong with Arsenal fans?
Edit: Incidentally, I was looking through old photos and found that I'd apparently made up a kanji for "gooning" a long time ago as a joke
Christ no, I don't want the predditors, gooners, and orbiters to infest the lemmyverse.
Porn subs should have stayed banned
They were ready to censor content to enhance profits. Then, for reasons unknown the trigger was pulled prematurely.
This process failure is further evidence of the presence of a mature process. The previous statement is, by itself, circular reasoning.
tinfoil hat on reddit admins got a threat from elon, so to cover up any mass hysteria from banning the problematic subs directly, they "accidentally" ban a bunch of random subs along with their actual targets.
Now everyones talking about r/boobs and whatever, they're restoring service whilst quietly keeping the anti musk subs banned without anyone giving a shit
This was surely on purpose. Some people at Reddit HQ wanted to lump in Elon's neo conservatism Christofascism with his evidently thin skin. Get porn banned along with anti Elon subs to draw the gooners to the anti Elon crowd.
Delightfully devilish
