got the notification to verify my age when trying to access NSFW posts or profiles already for a few weeks now, but as of today my whole account is blocked unless I verify. I guess that’s it then. Based in Austria btw, so there is no specific law in place that forces Reddit to implement this and I will definetly not give my personal information to Persona, a company that belongs to Peter Thiels Palantir group.

    There’s no use in interacting with posts, say, 8 hours old or so. Maybe less. Everybody has already moved on.

    Edit: that’s why I like the slower pace of the Fediverse, it’s like the old messages boards I grew up with, with posts that simmered for days/months and there wasn’t endless scrolling to steal your attention.

      Yeah, I remember being super excited in 2005 or so to check my forum threads and see where I had gotten replies. Conversations were often still measured in weeks back then.
