Yeah, that’s what the dev says, but I haven’t seen any details on what that deal is. As for NSFW content, all you need to do to get around that is to be a mod of a NSFW sub. I created one, set it to private and have been able to see NSFW posts and subs for weeks in both apps with no problem. It has been weeks and both Comet and Narwhal still work with no issues, and they aren’t the only apps that are still functional.
The whole thing just feels weird after the dust has settled.
Yeah I agree, though I always thought Narwhal was the second most popular 3rd party iOS app behind Apollo. Maybe those apps still open agreed to exchange user data with reddit or something? I just went to the app store for Narwhal and the privacy policy goes to a link that says its no longer active. Maybe that is an oversight or maybe not? I haven’t had an active reddit login for a few years now but old.reddit… also still works for NSFW views with no login.
I mostly just browse a few fringe subs and check to see whats on the frontpage and r/all. The general content on those has been really bad lately. It feels like a mix of corporate approved news, repost bots, and writing prompts which is probably what it is.
