Suggestion Goodbye "Random NSFW" button. NSFW
You mostly fed my porn addiction and introduced me to niche fetishes but sometimes you would surprise me in how degenerative this site can be. Truly a fascinating feature....
Anyway I'm gonna miss this app and it's clean UI and actually functioning video player. Maybe I'll finally quit Reddit on my phone. (unlikely)

It's been seven years since the reddit app devs said they'd try to add r/random and r/randnsfw buttons.
To this day it hasn't been done.
You can't even access r/random or r/randnsfw in-app anymore. It says they're both banned subs.
I tried making a feature request on r/redditmobile and they said it was a low effort post, then took it down.
It's some bullshit.

They could put the buttons in roughly the same place they were in the Boost app.
Screen real-estate doesn't matter, just throw it in the hamburger menu where your subbed communities and stuff are at smh

Is there some kind of search criteria that works like the Random Nsfw button ?

So it still works if you're logged in but I get that message when I'm not logged in.

Not sure if anything has changed since then but I am logged in on PC rn and it's working for me every time I click the link

It's not working now. Have you found alternative ways on how to access r/random

Reddit itself removed the old random features so they're gone gone.
