You still can if you're a subreddit mod, so I just did this:

  1. Create your own private sub
  2. You become a mod! Yay!
  3. NSFW now works on 3rd party app

Ah so this is why my apps sorta kinda work but are buggy as shit.

Which app are you using? On boost it tries to load (even non NSFW) but it does not load the posts.

Edit: NVM, Took a while but SFW and NSFW posts indeed are still loading on boost, for various accounts of mine.

The way the block works is that NSFW content works as it used to, but subs tagged by admins as porn will not.

Also be sure to put a bunch of stupid shit in your sub to make the site more lame. Post about how it's lame and people should use Lemmy or Kbin instead.
