Probably helped, but it definitely got accepted at a quicker rate because of porn.

That’s what those “mods are nazis” types don’t understand. Sure some mods are power tripping assholes, but most of them aren’t and are passionate about their communities.
Many who volunteer for the job also don’t stay long because of the work it entails, in addition to being called a nazi when some dumbfuck clearly breaks the rules and then harasses you for it.
My mod friends from my country’s subreddit stepped down because they didn’t want the abuse anymore after banning many racist and homophobic assholes. They all targeted their (the mod’s) username and made threads stalking all their activity and mass downvoting everything they did.
Technology has more or less flowed with the proliferation of porn. VHS (over Betamax), bluray (over HD-DVD), online payments and other Internet features rose to prominence because pornographic content helped spearhead their adoption.
Cool, thanks for the info. I didn’t do enough research.
