funny you should say that. r/jailbait existed for a very long time under the watchful eye of its heckin' wholesome founders.
reddit has been purging even vagueposted satirical wrongthink like r/MillionDollarExtreme and r/frenworld since Americans voted wrong in 2016. the commissars at r/againsthatesubreddits sniff it out, "Anti-Evil Operations" purge. all default and large subs are now moderated by compliant activists. r/videos removed the "no politics" rule and became yet another echo chamber for wholesome folx with good politics. r/europe exists only to promote wholesome civic nationalism and quickly purges and locks submissions about inconvenient happenings. the model subs like r/worldnews, r/news, and r/politics were propaganda outlets even before the bad orange man happened.
so idk what nasi infestation happened in your reality's 2018, but I observed the opposite in mine.
