but that says a lot more about the younger generation and the complete lack of knowledge and resources they have on anything
Discord replaced reddit communities for younger kids the same as reddit replaced forum communities for the previous generation. Even googling is something younger internet users don't do as much and i feel is only a matter of time until even individual apps are phased out and everything is centralized to one single AI service tied to your social credit score and thats gonna be it.
 
Thr only reason there's not been a wave of reddit mass shooters is because redditors are too fat and incompetent to do it.
they can't buy guns because they are mentally ill and too afraid of using it on themselves as soon as they get it. This is usually the go-to answer when the question is asked on communist subs on why they don't arm themselves against fascism.
 

This is one of those ones that I have to assume is just completely fake because it is so absurd.

Cat does normal animal things like want food when it is hungry, no shit. Feed it before you go to bed and it won't beg for food when you're asleep. And lol, her main complaint is that her relationship with her father was poor... so he dropped off a KFC fried chicken breast at her house, which she then left out in the open and the cat ate it. Seriously? That was the symbol of your relationship with your dad? A single piece of leftover fast food fried chicken? What? Fucking lol.
 
Would these people evaporate if they stop bringing up their sexuality everywhere?
Why do you think it's called sexual  identity? It's their entire identity. That is all these people are. The only thing that defines them as individuals is either rugmunching or buttfucking. That's why they're offended so easily: their entire world is da gae, everything that happens to them is an insult to da gae and because da gae is the only thing in their lives, every insult is suicide material.
 
Looks like Reddit is following Discord in rolling out age verification for UK users.
(Archive seems to be shitting the bed, so here's a direct link)
TL;DR:

Reddit was built on the principle that you shouldn’t need to share personal information to participate in meaningful discussions. Unlike platforms that are identity-based and cater to the famous (or those that want to become famous), Reddit has always favored upvoting great posts and comments by people who use whimsical usernames and not their real name. These conversations are often more candid and real than those that force you to share your real-world identity.

However, while we still don’t want to know who you are on Reddit, there are certainly situations where it would be helpful if we knew a little more about you. For example, in the new age of AI, we would like to be able to confirm whether you are a human being or not (more to come about that later). And it would be helpful for our safety efforts to be able to confirm whether you are a child or an adult. Also, there are a growing number of jurisdictions that have considered or have passed laws requiring platforms to verify the ages of their users.

If you are in the UK…

Notably, the UK Online Safety Act has new requirements to implement additional measures to prevent children from accessing age-inappropriate content. So, starting July 14 in the UK, we will begin collecting and verifying your age before you can view certain mature content.

We have tried to do this in a way that protects the privacy of UK redditors. To verify your age, we partner with a trusted third-party provider (Persona) who performs the verification on either an uploaded selfie or a photo of your government ID. Reddit will not have access to the uploaded photo, and Reddit will only store your verification status along with the birthdate you provided so you won’t have to re-enter it each time you try to access restricted content. Persona promises not to retain the photo for longer than 7 days and will not have access to your Reddit data such as the subreddits you visit. Your birthdate is never visible to other users or advertisers, and is used to support safety features and age-appropriate experiences on Reddit. You can learn more about how age verification works here and about what content is restricted here.

For the rest of Reddit…

As laws change, we may need to collect and/or verify age in places other than the UK. Accordingly, we are also introducing globally an option for you to provide your birthdate to optimize your Reddit experience, for example to help ensure that content and ads are age-appropriate. This is optional, and you won’t be required to provide it unless you live in a place (like the UK) where we are required to ask for it. And, again, your birthdate is never visible to other users or advertisers.

As always, you should only share what personal details you are comfortable sharing on Reddit. Using Reddit has never required disclosing your real world identity, and these updates don't change that.
Seems it's already being rolled out to UK-based users:

Not surprised the Reddit admins chose to comply, they don't have the bottle of Dear Leader to tell Ofcom where to shove it.
