The change is due to new age verification laws in the UK.

      Can you use it with that watermark on it? I’d be surprised.

        No, but with a screenshot without the Watermark at the bottom, there are also apps to delete Watermarks (always have to explain everything to today’s kids 🙄)

            Are you with a mobile? Well, than upload the image to Minipaint (works also fine in mobile) and crop there la image. It’s a very complete and powerfull image editor, online (also downloadable) and FOSS.

    You must show your id to access NSFW subreddits!

    “oh no!”

    changes www.reddit.com to old.reddit.com on the adress bar

    “anyways”

    Tho i remember when they removed compact reddit. But i think if they remove old.reddit.com, people will really start to leave, so they’ll try to get rid of it quietly.

      I do wonder how long they’ll let old.reddit.com stay. I assume they don’t want it but are worried about the backlash

        Maybe. They could just let it rot. Let it break over time. Thus pushing people onto the new site.

    They’ll probably VPN to mainland Europe to sign up for their account.

    Several years ago, I tried making an Instagram account. It was locked immediately (on first log in). They good me to upload a selfie where I was also holding up my driver’s license.

      If this law says in place and is actually enforced all fediverse instances will need to start verifying age for UK users too.

    This is horrible, I remember they did the same thing with Facebook marketplace (only for everything not only NSFW lol) although you can just use a random AI generated face.

    With 72 years it is insulting for me to have to prove my age and the only thing they will prove will be my middle finger 😡
