    Not just porn! Since reddit only has one such tag you can apply to posts, many subreddits were using the NSFW tag for a wider variety of reasons such as spoilers, content which may contain unsettling material (aka “triggers”), and more!

      The stoners on Reddit got screwed - many of the weed subs got the banhammer, and the rest got NSFW’d because spez wants Reddit as G-rated as Disney for the IPO.

    That was like, half the reason I used reddit, lol. Otherwise it’s just a shithole full of “aHkshUaly” people.

    Take your clothes off, or give me something actually interesting and insightful to read, or fuck right off.

    You can’t look at Reddit at all on third party apps now. Or did I miss a change to their API change?

    Lmao this puritanical turn from all these tech companies over the last 5-6 years I don’t get it. All they are going to do is speed self-immolation. What is happening to the internet.

          The market is already pretty saturated, though. There are so many other places to view this type of content and in a better format than a link aggregator.

          Like, wouldn’t Pornhub be a more streamlined way to look at porn? Or whatever other porn website?

          I never understood the appeal of porn on reddit. I always just blocked the porn subs and went about my business.

          Having said all that, I totally agree that it should be allowed or perhaps even encouraged. It’s a free and open system - let the people do what they want. Even if I personally don’t understand the appeal.

          • You’re probably right. I think it matters more to content creators than consumers? Like, posting porn to Reddit is often advertising? And like anything, people must get some form if satisfaction interactions on specialty subs. You can’t just go to Pornhub and upload your favorite foot porn, right? Get upvotes, get that tiny dose of dopamine. Get to comment about how beautiful the girl is, hoping maybe she’ll like your complement more than the other thirsty guys’.

            Social media, man. Interaction, even meaningless… it’s its own drug.

    You still can if you’re a subreddit mod, so I just did this:

    1. Create your own private sub
    2. You become a mod! Yay!
    3. NSFW now works on 3rd party app
