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.

I just tested with Relay. I can view NSFW subs. I should note my account seems to be flagged as NSFW for posting to interestingasfuck after it went NSFW.

I always struggled with looking at the porn because my erection would get in the way. Thank you for reading and have a great day

Hi I’m totally new here since Reddit banned freedom of speech so is a nsfw even a thing here? How you guys like it I think Reddit was kinda better in some aspect but I do enjoy this service as well

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.

Control. Can't black mail people if this sort of thing is generally acceptable and it's easy to be anonymous.

What good is a surveillance state if you can't threaten troublesome elements with purity laws.
