Glad I downloaded all content from /m/RimWorldPorn just before the darkness then!

I just downloaded (the deleted and left a 1 star review) the official app and downloaded an old image and a new image and a watermark didn’t appear. Neither on the website

They might be trying it on a select subset of users to see how it goes.

Definitely could believe that, just wanted to report my own findings too

Yeah, they’ve been rolling out the worst anti-features to small sets of trial users, that’s what’s happening with the users blocked from accessing the website on mobile

That can’t possibly be true

It shows that they’re worried.

I am not sure what interface(s) or the conditions are, but apparently every post now has a reddit watermark. Presumably for people trying to repost their work to other sites.

Obligatory “fuck Steve Huffman.”

I know that for a while now saving stuff off the official app has had a banner on it. This is a logical extension.

Dunno if it’s true, and not crossing the picket line to find out.

Fuck u/spez. That’s the new slogan for Reddit now.

To be fair that’s been the reddit slogan for like a decade at this point

I just tried it with the official app. It does have a banner by default if you download an image. The banner says what sub it’s from on the left, and it says “Reddit” and has the logo on the right. You can turn the banner off in the settings. But the banner also doesn’t cover up any part of the image itself, so you could also crop it out.

I actually don’t hate this implementation. Having a Reddit logo cover the content would be dumb, but this post could also be rage bait, since I haven’t seen this happen personally.

Edit: I want to clarify that the first time I downloaded an image it told me there was going to be a banner, and that I could turn it off in the settings.

Not rage bait, I haven’t used the official app…well ever and I trust that my source is telling me the truth. Here’s a fuller screenshot with context (though credentials blurred out) if it helps.

Edit: added a image with more context

That seems to be an option you can opt out of
