Make yourself a mod and patch with revanced and you can still see nsfw content. For now.

I still have Infinity installed and I can still porn. Is it possible existing API keys have the permission to fetch NSFW posts. Though it won't be long lived though.

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

My app is still pulling NSFW content from the API as of right now. Let’s see how it goes.

Kind of ironic that the content they can't monetize through ads is the content they're blocking from third parties

Eh, honestly I don't care about the porn, but with a lot of subreddits flying the NSFW flag just to piss off advertisers, that makes life a lot more shitty. shrugs Oh well, just one more reason to make myself scarce there.

Admins sent out letters saying to change back to safe for work or the mods will lose mod power and be banned.

Some are falling in line. Others are not.

Not sure how many backup mods they can have for $0.

Pretty sure once subreddits that lose their mods are forced to be "sfw" people are gonna spam nsfw content because their moderation will be weak.

Steve Huffman declared war on the internet. Sony tried that once. Didn't go so well.
