This includes some porn subreddits as well as subreddits like /r/Drugs. Apparently due to being “unmoderated”, but some were not. What are your thoughts?

Edit: apparently also subreddits like /r/transgender_surgeries is banned too. Definitely feels politically motivated.

    Yeah a lot of banned nsfw subs today at /r/BannedSubs. People are saying it’s because next week Reddit is gonna announce their Q4 earnings and want to attract more investors and advertisers to their “cleaner” site. Lame-ass puritans, I’d say.

    edit: Looks like the bans have been reversed. A reddit admin claimed it was “a bug”. Bruh, what kind of bug would only affect veeeery specific nsfw and political subreddits lmao.

          In my experience it is better to segregate NSFW and SFW accounts. Not because it is shameful and I don’t want people seeing, but because NSFW floods feeds and I can’t get anything done when encumbered by pretty naked women. lol

            And it’s pretty wild when trying to scroll anything in public or with people nearby.

              Not an issue I have to contend with personally as I don’t use anything other than my laptop at home when I want to be on the internet, but a very valid reason to separate NSFW from SFW social media nonetheless.
