Reddit now won't let non-logged in users see subreddits until they've been "reviewed"

This is literally just the r/nyt subreddit about The New York Times.

Given he apparently takes inspiration from Elon Musk, it's only a matter of time until u/spez starts adding post view limits unless you pay extra.

How exactly does it help if I install the app and go to that subreddit? NSFW is still NSFW.

This might just be morning brain, but I honestly don’t understand the question I’m sorry

I think their point is, if you're correct and this is to protect people from unexpected NSFW content, viewing through the app would still just expose them to the unexpected NSFW content anyway.

they mean why is it even necessary to use the app

Because Reddit wants us to use their app. I don’t think it should be necessary so I’m not sure why that question is directed at me or if that’s even what they’re asking tbh. But yeah obviously they want folks on the app.
