We toggled to 18+ and sort of let nature take its course by only enforcing TOS. I say "we" but in reality I was the only active mod on either sub, so I do feel bad for getting awkwardtheturtle banned by association (lol). After the fact got the "It’s not ok to show people NSFW content when they don’t want to see it.

Mods should not make malicious changes to their communities, such as allowing rule-violating behavior or encouraging the submission of sexually explicit (18+) content in previously safe-for-work spaces."

This is my first post, also fuck Spez

Ad dollars. They're losing money with the nsfw content because the ads can't be shown next to porn. They still get plausible deniability with r/piracy.

I don't understand how they get plausible deniablity with r/piracy if they kick out the existing mods and then run it themselves.

But maybe that's why they're leaving the subs restricted and unmodded. Can't be blamed for running the sub if you don't actually run anything i guess.
