This is the true final blow to third party apps.

I noticed they did something similar to the mobile website. Even with appropriate content blockers there’s absolutely no way you can see sexually explicit content on mobile without their app.

They even do the same thing with SFW posts, they just say it’s “unreviewed content” or whatever.
