So can I upload a dick pic?

Bet that this won’t stop anyone from using it. People are sheep. Easily pacified and all too willing to give up whatever is requested for even the tiniest of endorphin boosts.

Didn't they ban NSFW a year ago?

Question in general about that UK law while there's people here who seem to know things: What about my private, personal website that I run as a hobby? If I have nsfw content on there* that I made myself with (one of (lolamirite)) my own two hands for free with no monetary gain whatsoever, they can't expect me to implement age verification, can they?

* (I don't right now, calm down)

Edit: any non-profit thing, really. AO3?

Why do I have a feeling that a handful of people are going to suddenly become n-tuplets?

[–] pHr34kY@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

I'd send them a pic of my hairy bollocks as proof.

That said, as someone who has posted stuff like that and had it spread without my consent, screw (very much not literally) consuming that shit without taking the same risks as the people sharing what they get off to.

I do think its gross to require it for the other NSFW stuff. Drug forums are very important resources for harm reduction.

It'd be only fair if they required NSFW selfies.

This addon makes using old reddit on mobile bearable.

If you visit via old.reddit you can dismiss the modals to sign into the app or your account.

Depends on location.

It's like this in US: https://files.catbox.moe/at3ijo.png

Reddit account?

Pretty old since I haven't nuked it yet, but I'm not even signed in above as you can see from the above screenshot

I should really login sometime to see if I have lots of threats from mister greedy Spez piggy again, but the headline here doesn't match up to me trying it in the UK rn.
