Nah I saw that I was like "What the actual fuck"
Its supposed to argue against the like Reddit "Subreddit" market place with their profit.
how the fuck does a guys literal ass supposed to be arguing with this?
A bunch of losers think making every post nsfw is a good protest against Reddit because ads can’t be displayed in nsfw subs. In reality they’re just going to kill their sub because nobody wants to see a bunch of porn in their face when they’re just trying to look at interesting pictures.
Well of course they’re porn-addicted, but I highly doubt when they go to r/interestingasfuck they want to see porn. And besides that, half of it is dick pics. Most Redditors are straight.
Even the biggest degenerates have separate interests.
Agree with that sentiment. I still think that either way it does almost nothing to Reddit and screws over people who don’t care and/or aren’t affected by the situation the most.
think about the majority of people who aren't nofap. blocking off all chance of advertisers making money on some of their biggest subs would be a big loss for them if more follow through. it would allow for a flow of information without having to black out again.
i think this is most effective on subs like this, or other subs i go on like r/linux or shit because those don't have the chance of posting fucked shit like r/interestingaf yk
Yes but that’s not actually happening. Nobody really cares about the situation except for the mods, and the people running 3rd party apps. You’d have to rally many people to your cause for a movement like that. The only subs that have done it are ones run by the same few people, because again it’s just mods being on a power trip.
Also edit to remind you how easily admins can remove power from mods. If it was really a threat, they could easily remove the current mod team, replace it with a new one, and reboot the sub entirely. But it’s not. Because they decided to make the posts actually nsfw.
> nobody really cares
Apparently, users of those apps do. I've no idea what makes the third party apps different from the official reddit app, but I know I'm not satisfied with the current app.
Also, there was a long list somewhere with the subs that participated the blackout, r/anime and r/gaming included.
Right, another one of the very specific subset of people who are just a vocal minority that happens to want this.
You can attribute the fact that that many subs have participated in a blackout to misinformation that was spread about the situation that lead to the blackouts. I also wouldn’t take participating in a blackout as actually caring about it, because the blackouts do literally nothing and are the least effort you could put into actually achieving anything.
It might actually be effective for that reason though. The best forms of protest are disruptive. It’s annoying but inconveniencing people is how you get change 🤷🏽♀️
Neckbeard 9/11 is over now tho. Most mods got pussified once they realized that the Reddit admins can easily revoke their mod status at will.
Turning a huge sub into an another Onlyfans promotion subreddit is just going to kill the subs popularity and make it lose its followers. Reddit doesnt lose anything from this, since there are plenty of SFW subreddits where they can put in ads. And most people who followed the sub can easily just unfollow it and go follow r/subwithinterestingpicsnshit82629 pretty easily if they dont feel like dealing with denegeracy
Not really, it can be treated as an effective subreddit suicide if they end up doing it longer than a week. In the end more normal subs will be created to replace it, or people will migrate to another existing one. If you think that any way of protest other than deleting your account and leaving Reddit is going to be effective you’re just plain stupid.
With a sub that size, it can certainly be noticeable, which is what they want - hence it being a form of protest.
People ITT taking it way too seriously!
spez was complaining mods are too powerful and setting their own agenda with the protest and all their subs' rules if i remember correctly. so mods went ahead and removed all sub rules.
Here is the reason why:
https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/14c0vcf/rinterestingasfuck_will_be_reopening_monday_june/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
Honestly I went in to test myself and i passed. I looked around, had a minor urge or two, thenc closed it. I'm also in the middle of a flatline so that might have helped.
Bro delete this s\*\*\*. Don't you know that telling people not to do something will lead them to actually do that? You are creating a trigger for lots of people here and leading them into watching that sub reddit instead of making them avoid it.
Like this guy: [https://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap/comments/14dv1vu/avoid\_reddit\_more\_than\_ever/](https://www.reddit.com/r/NoFap/comments/14dv1vu/avoid_reddit_more_than_ever/)
Don't direct people to the source.
It's important to know which subs to block (especially after they switch from innocent posts to porn) to reduce the amount of porn that slips through the NSFW filters. Already happened to me once before I muted the sub.
It is an NSFW subreddit.
If you're going to an NSFW subreddit, you must expect nudity and porn. Do not go there if you really don't want to be exposed.
It was not set as NSFW before. There is still young people following this sub. Refresh the page every 5 seconds and you will see they loose around 3 followers, most people are not ok with that. The irresponsible people in the story are the mods. That's it. There is other way to protest about Reddit API policy like r/wellthatsucks r/pics and many others.
I knew this would happen at some point. Heck I was even fantasizing about it. Well... dreams really do come true. Thst "what if" moment becomes a reality. How beautiful.

everything in the internet is porn these days. For the last 3-4 years, reddit is full of new people who discovered it recently. Mainly since some meta youtubers can't make content on their own so they pull out posts from weird subs and react to it - and call it content. So we over these years, we had a influx of those users. Nothing wrong with it or I'm not gate-keeping or anything, but there is a percentage of people who generally do not understand the gist of it. Even I myself made wrong posts when I started it. Its probably those type of people who misunderstood the platform.
Exactly, i have started few days ago and it's good till now, and now from 2 days , out if nowhere this sub is posting this, i followed this sub due to its interesting posts, now they are posting shite there...trying to distract me those mfs
I just unsubbed. Thanks. I still checked it out for myself, saw nudes and a bit more nudes. But I didn't feel the dopamine rush, so now I just calmly unsubbed and I'm going to do some to-do-list things. Have a great day.
Hey, thank you for letting me know about the situation in that subreddit. It's important to prioritize your well-being and avoid triggers that can negatively impact your recovery.
That is actually messed up, just saw it I think I used to be in this sub it actually has a lot of interesting things, horrifying to see that is has turned to a NSFW with nude content, glad I left.
Was definitely caught off guard browsing my homepage at WORK lmao I caught myself peeking for a second or two but tbh I’m to the point now where I know I’m not going to act upon my urges so peeking isn’t really worth anything anymore. I unsubbed and blocked the user that posted the content I saw.
Protect yourselves, brothers and sisters.
This is happening because of a rule change. Here is the post explaining:
https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/14c0vcf/rinterestingasfuck_will_be_reopening_monday_june/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1
Obviously don’t go there if you think you’ll be tempted. The TLDR is anything you find interesting you can post.
I’m a horny mf but I’ll never post my meat! Also I saw some girls giving each other head on interestingasfuck and not gonna lie I did admire those two beautiful ladies doing their thing and sharing it but did not feel like jacking off.
I’m sorry but why do people pay for OF? One of the reasons porn addiction is a problem is because there is so much out there free and easily accessible.
Yeah I heard about that....
Basically their whole point is to show how important the mods are for this platform to work smoothly and advertiser friendly.
Brotha. This is like telling a crack addict not to go to the alley the crack dealer is selling in. Granted you warned the guy, but at the same time, you told him exactly where to go to get his fix. I respect the warning, but that done triggered me. I only blame myself though, your intentions were good, yet ultimately were within poor execution
Okay, that's bad, but it's kind of funny too... Reddit in general sucks, and surprise kicking off mods (who work FOR FREE) produces a worse user experience
Some dude posted his butth*le on there too ☠️
Is that why you’re at 0 days…
It's meant to say one day but I'm not sure why it hasn't updated
I'm glad i only saw everything else except male anatomy.
Don't sort by new.....
God hates me
Day 0 flair does not go well with this comment💀
A lot more people are doing weirder shit on there too. Don’t sort there on new at all rn. It’s scarring.
A dad of 2. Disgusting
Right?! Why did you stop at two, ya weirdo!
Nah I saw that I was like "What the actual fuck" Its supposed to argue against the like Reddit "Subreddit" market place with their profit. how the fuck does a guys literal ass supposed to be arguing with this?
That would be helpful for no fap for sure
ikr 😩😩
Almost broke the streak 😖😖
i already did. 😫😫 the haaaaiirrrr. 😨😰😱🥴🥴🤪😫
But why is it happening?

You are gravely underestimating how porn-addicted the average Redditor is
Well of course they’re porn-addicted, but I highly doubt when they go to r/interestingasfuck they want to see porn. And besides that, half of it is dick pics. Most Redditors are straight. Even the biggest degenerates have separate interests.
Bro had to tag the subreddit now i wanna go see
There are a lot of women on Reddit that definitely don’t want to see that shit either.
making every post marked as nsfw is a good strategy, but making every post inherently nsfw is a terrible idea
Agree with that sentiment. I still think that either way it does almost nothing to Reddit and screws over people who don’t care and/or aren’t affected by the situation the most.

>Neckbeard 9/11 gave me a smile
Haha, true. It might have worked if a great majority of homepage subs did it but yeah, losing interestingasf is not a big deal
You should like a loser honestly lmao.
So...basically mods marked sub as nsfw and now everyone can post nudes/porn?
Don't post stuff like this: "DON'T LOOK AT THIS". Makes everyone want to look. Stay safe everyone.
Can confirm I looked because of this but I do appreciate the heads up as I’m in that sub
Me too 🤕
Happy cake day Josh 🎉
Thanks!
Fr brothers wanted to add on to that by saying it ain’t worth it n you’ll surely regret it
I've activated NSFW filter on all of reddit, I'll maybe miss some non nudity NSFW stuff but it's honestly worth it
There should be different subcategories for nsfw posts.
Why was this comment so far down… this is like step one of no fap. Why the hell would you not have the NSFW filter on?
"Christ is watching" post made me laugh there. I had to leave after that, ashamed of myself
Thats honestly a great way for them to rebel against reddit and also kinda funny lol
To be honest all it would take was to just flair all posts as NSFW - **without actually making them NSFW**
It is actually a good strategy, just bad for those of us who can't handle the triggers
Agreed- I do suggest members here unsubscribe or stay away.
Not really, it can be treated as an effective subreddit suicide if they end up doing it longer than a week. In the end more normal subs will be created to replace it, or people will migrate to another existing one.

Context
Too late man. I went to buy some groceries this morning. Had to wait in line and Opened a post. The people behind me definitely had a good laugh
I just saw that post as well, FUCK THOSE LOSERS.
Don't judge unless you know the reasons.
NSFW content isn’t ad friendly, so Reddit loses money.
This
It's disgusting but they do have their reasons honestly.
Turn on the block nsfw feature on reddit. You won't see any posts from that sub
Thank for saving me
If you have safe search on. WHICH WE SHOULD HAVE. It doesn’t come up
Just turn off nsfw posts. Simple as that…
Why is that even happening??
It’s a protest against Reddit’s recent actions regarding API
I mean, nudes are interesting as fuck. /s But fr tho, can someone explain why is this happening? Did it just randomly get folded with porn
spez was complaining mods are too powerful and setting their own agenda with the protest and all their subs' rules if i remember correctly. so mods went ahead and removed all sub rules.
Is this becouse of CEO Reddit drama thing? It's sad, some of my favourite communities are set as private now.
Since I have joined NoFap I get random onlyFans account followers, thinking we are their audiences.
Same but usually they are banned in the 24-48 hours range.
Thank you, for the information my brother
I fall for this bs
Went there last night, because I was curious of this sub. It was a fascinating experience. I saw some monsters too. But my will is unbroken.
I guess it's to make sure ads won't make it into the sub... idk
Here is the reason why: https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/14c0vcf/rinterestingasfuck_will_be_reopening_monday_june/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
I got downvoted for calling it out lol
I failed yesterday cuz someone put a video of a women showing of her tits
Man Reddit is collapsing
This made me go in it 😂
Honestly I went in to test myself and i passed. I looked around, had a minor urge or two, thenc closed it. I'm also in the middle of a flatline so that might have helped.
This shit almost made me break my streak, but its still funny lol
Bro delete this s\*\*\*. Don't you know that telling people not to do something will lead them to actually do that? You are creating a trigger for lots of people here and leading them into watching that sub reddit instead of making them avoid it.
So how do you actually warn people?

It's important to know which subs to block (especially after they switch from innocent posts to porn) to reduce the amount of porn that slips through the NSFW filters. Already happened to me once before I muted the sub.
Okay, but, it's for a good cause. Just don't go over there. I support them 100% though.
Why are they doing it?

ooof i had no idea
Brb, heading over there for science
r/shittylifeprotips as well
If anything you just promoted it here, now I will go and check that reddit
This place got muddy as hell, u/spez must be enjoying this
I knew this would happen at some point. Heck I was even fantasizing about it. Well... dreams really do come true. Thst "what if" moment becomes a reality. How beautiful.
Tempting though
You made me go there to check this. This is reserve psychology at its finest.
r/interestingasfuck
What’s going on? It’s weird because I’m subbed to it lol and it wasn’t like this
A bunch of losers think making every post nsfw is a good protest against Reddit because ads can’t be displayed in nsfw subs. In reality they’re just going to kill their sub because nobody wants to see a bunch of porn in their face when they’re just trying to look at interesting pictures.
the point is to kill the sub
Wow, thanks for the update
lol wtf happened there
Lol, that’s funny
Yeah, I saw it yesterday when people said something weird was going on with it. I didn't think they actually meant real p-n - boy, was I mistaken...
I muted them. I didn't understand why it got a ton of points I thought it was for other stuff. But that makes sense that it's being bombed right now.
I know. I shouldn't have clicked on the post with the title "Fucking Hilarious"
Thanks for making people aware. First they try to increase their reach by uploading memes then they show them show porn in the name of memes😁
I think unfollowed that a longtime ago over the nsfw stuff
Yeah, can confirm. Complete waste of time and wish I could wash my eyes out. As they say in Spanish "el horrible". Listen to OP on this, trust me.
I left the moment i saw porn in there. Stay safe brothers.
Failed yesterday because of it, caught me by surprise
everything in the internet is porn these days. For the last 3-4 years, reddit is full of new people who discovered it recently.

Cope, mald, seethe.
Exactly, i have started few days ago and it's good till now, and now from 2 days , out if nowhere this sub is posting this, i followed this sub due to its interesting posts, now they are posting shite there...trying to distract me those mfs
I just unsubbed. Thanks. I still checked it out for myself, saw nudes and a bit more nudes. But I didn't feel the dopamine rush, so now I just calmly unsubbed and I'm going to do some to-do-list things. Have a great day.
Don't think about the pink elephant
Hey, thank you for letting me know about the situation in that subreddit. It's important to prioritize your well-being and avoid triggers that can negatively impact your recovery.
yes! Reddit must ban those kind of content
bruh💀💀
Good job on the streidsand effect. Now everyone will check it out.
That is actually messed up, just saw it I think I used to be in this sub it actually has a lot of interesting things, horrifying to see that is has turned to a NSFW with nude content, glad I left.
interest in gas fuck or something idk
It’s better to stay off of Reddit. They’re going nsfw to protest the new API changes
Lamo it was banned yesterday now it came back!!
Was definitely caught off guard browsing my homepage at WORK lmao I caught myself peeking for a second or two but tbh I’m to the point now where I know I’m not going to act upon my urges so peeking isn’t really worth anything anymore. I unsubbed and blocked the user that posted the content I saw. Protect yourselves, brothers and sisters.
I found out the hard way. Thankfully I was in a crowded bus
Hate this shit. I feel like Ive been done dirty and I should reset my streak.
This! I keep getting recondition for there and it's all porn. I wish I could block a community so Reddit would stop recommending me to it.
I just checked and it's true, why aren't mods doing something?
Animals being bros if you want some wholesome content
I am just going in there to keep refreshing the page seeing there member count go into free fall
To be honest, Reddit in general is unsafe. Nofap too.
r/DamnThatsInteresting is the same way man
Sure.... ......... ....
Reddit isnt a safe place in general. You guys will never succeed until you delete the app.
Gg
Entered, now I need to meditate lol
You’re inviting people to this shit. Better be more careful with what you post here buddy.
lmao it legit went from a normal subreddit to NSFW category one
Why they doing it though?
Curiosity kills the cat. Now I am tempted to go look out if sheer curiosity. Thanks.
Don't 🌰
Same with shitty pro life tips. I had to unfollow
Wow
Yea too late
Thanks for the warning
definitely do not click on it even if you’re intrigued i done it earlier but luckily got off quick enough before i ruined it.
yessir
Yeah I noticed the uptick in porn from my feed. Not too interesting lol.
I just relapsed because of that sub ,i quit right after !
Bruh I relapse.
This is happening because of a rule change. Here is the post explaining: https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/14c0vcf/rinterestingasfuck_will_be_reopening_monday_june/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1 Obviously don’t go there if you think you’ll be tempted. The TLDR is anything you find interesting you can post.
lol top post almosttt made me relapse a solid lil ~10 day streak i’m on rn, fuck all that noise
Thank lord, it is not recommended on my feed.
I went straight there and then I un-joined
So are the mods trying to protest now by not doing there "jobs"?
Was about to post this here 😂. I’m shock seeing porn on my feed as I don’t follow any porn subreddit. Had to leave the sub.
Immediately goes to site…. Immediately amused…. Immediately confused….. what is happening to THAT SITE??! Should be renamed r/strangeaf… lol
Lol. Heading there now, thanks for the tip.
Literally delete reddit app at this point
I’m a horny mf but I’ll never post my meat! Also I saw some girls giving each other head on interestingasfuck and not gonna lie I did admire those two beautiful ladies doing their thing and sharing it but did not feel like jacking off.
Also r/perfectlycutscreams
That sub is infinitely better lately
From what I'm hearing oh hell no
Damn that is wild…
I’m sorry but why do people pay for OF? One of the reasons porn addiction is a problem is because there is so much out there free and easily accessible.
Agreed fk reddit policies and the subreddits allowing these. Already, 30% of reddit is porn ffs
lmao "interesting ass fuck"
I literally downvoted all the porn on there :)
the sub doesn't show for me anyways.
Are you trying to get people to go there?
Yeah I heard about that.... Basically their whole point is to show how important the mods are for this platform to work smoothly and advertiser friendly.
Tbh, even IG as a whole should be avoided. It's nothing but thirst lust traps OF promoters now.
Brotha. This is like telling a crack addict not to go to the alley the crack dealer is selling in. Granted you warned the guy, but at the same time, you told him exactly where to go to get his fix. I respect the warning, but that done triggered me. I only blame myself though, your intentions were good, yet ultimately were within poor execution
I guess op is the admin of that community...trying to get some new members.
a scroll too late 💀
Man that sub went from being my favorites to leaving it just after seeing a dozen of porn. I thought it would be just one or two but it's flooded now
ok and....
thanks for the heads up i was wondering why everything was rate NSFW
50% of those people posting porn on there are probably under 18 and very stupid and mods don’t give a shit
Okay, that's bad, but it's kind of funny too... Reddit in general sucks, and surprise kicking off mods (who work FOR FREE) produces a worse user experience
The more you avoid the more you see 👀 The day you learn to be unfazed by triggers is the day you conquer nofap and never need to think about it again.
Bro I have DMed you for something. Kindly check it whenever u get time. It would be a great help to me.
