r/formula1 is reopening as NSFW to “comply to the fullest extent of our abilities with these changes”:
Formula 1 is inherently dangerous. Crashes and injuries are not uncommon - some even with fatal results. These incidents are discussed on r/formula1, and videos, images and other media are posted following these events.
Formula 1 includes messaging and sponsors that are connected to alcohol, tobacco and gambling - all of which are legislatively prohibited or age restricted in various locations. We cannot prevent these from being displayed to underaged users, as they are incorporated in general Formula 1 imagery and content.
Formula 1 is known for, both in the past and today, to include certain risque imagery that fall within the NSFW space.
Reddit’s User Agreement states that “Children under the age of 13 are not allowed to create an Account or otherwise use the Services.” - As such it stands to reason that persons under legal age participate in r/formula1.
Switching our classification means Reddit’s age verification shields underage users from being exposed to content considered harmful.
One of the legal advice subs – I can’t remember which – was going forward requiring post approval from mods because they value community safety. But as they are unpaid volunteers they estimate it could take up to 14 days for post approval.
The only thing that could have made it better would be if they added a “Moderators need to work much more slowly now due to having to use the official reddit app’s terrible UI”
Shitposting is funny because the auto mod they are using to remove posts cites removing the post in order to save bandwidth for Reddit. The auto mod post is much longer than post being removed and contains K’s. I found it funny anyway.
Bread stapled to trees is only going to allow four subjects moving forward on certain weeks, one of which is John Oliver, another being literal garbage, lol.
Glorious.

I think that was /r/scams. Their post was fantastic
Oh man. I wouldn’t want to anger a bunch of people who make it a hobby to fight scammers in a social psychology arms race.
Thank you for the rundown! It almost makes me want to go back and take a look at the shit show… But tis a silly place and I shant be going back.
Trust me, the shit show is glorious. I even instinctively upvoted a couple of medieval memes but quickly realized what I was doing and closed the tab.
THAT’S what a rundown is!
I did, it was glorious!
/r/Piracy also celebrated the fact that reddit officially endorsed them.
/r/woodworking is debating going back to normal, or posting pictures of Norm Abrams and Nick Offerman. I’ll let you guess which one is winning.
fucking lmao.
That should be a nice complement to r/onlyfans, which has previously refocused to pictures of fans (though it’s still private)
…I’m afraid to ask what “nofans” used to be. I hadn’t heard of it before.
Absolutely fucking glorious!
It makes me so happy seeing reddit come together against this bullshit

It is like watching a slow train wreck. You know you should just look away, but you just cannot.
I need this, faith in humanity has been at a low ebb
I’d like to know more about the “determining close days” for some subreddits. Won’t they just open them back up?
I love to see the malicious compliance.
Some subs like r/fuckcars will be doing “touch grass Tuesday”, where the sub will be restricted every Tuesday.
I think r/HarryPotter is still polling the same idea. Which gets me wonder what if most of the popular subs decided to do this.

It feels empowering to be part of a pissed off collective.
What a bowl of fresh air.

Absolutely amazing, what other subreddits are thinking to follow suite?
