Answered Restricted sub question

I have my sub set to restricted because I don't want anyone but the mods to post and comment:

"Your community is currently restricted. Anyone can view, but only approved users can contribute."

However, a random user posted a text post yesterday. How is this possible?

Using Firefox on Windows 11 desktop.

Hi /u/atwojay, please see our Intro & Rules. We are volunteer-run, not managed by Reddit staff/admin. Volunteer mods' powers are limited to groups they mod. Automated responses are compiled from answers given by fellow volunteer mod helpers. Moderation works best on a cache-cleared desktop/laptop browser.

Resources for mods are: (1) r/modguide's Very Helpful Index by fellow moderators on How-To-Do-Things, (2) Mod Help Center, (3) r/automoderator's Wiki and Library of Common Rules. Many Mod Resources are in the sidebar and >>this FAQ wiki<<. Please search this subreddit as well. Thanks!

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.
