Reddit bans over 100 subreddits, including r/porn, r/drugs, r/transgender_surgeries, r/rule34, r/boobs, r/IsElonDeadYet. EDIT: admin claims it was a "bug", most subs restored now (hexbear.net)

edit: Reddit admin says "this is a bug and has been reversed".

r/IsElonDeadYet is still banned though and r/whitepeopletwitter is still under a 72-hour temp ban for "glorifying violence or doxing" against Elon's DOGE crew.

At the same time the current situation is also unsustainable. You cannot rely on Reddit mods to properly control these communities for obvious reasons. There's no proper age verification, bots run rampant, that's a recipe for disaster and criminal activity (and I mean serious crimes like CSAM, human trafficking, money laundering, etc, not piracy or giving someone 20 bucks who then used the 20 to buy drugs) on drug and porn subreddits. But I don't think Reddit will ban it, they'll just cover it up better.
