Eh, honestly I don't care about the porn, but with a lot of subreddits flying the NSFW flag just to piss off advertisers, that makes life a lot more shitty. shrugs Oh well, just one more reason to make myself scarce there.
Admins sent out letters saying to change back to safe for work or the mods will lose mod power and be banned.
Some are falling in line. Others are not.
Not sure how many backup mods they can have for $0.
Pretty sure once subreddits that lose their mods are forced to be "sfw" people are gonna spam nsfw content because their moderation will be weak.
