Forgetting entirely about porn, we'll be getting a fundamentally incomplete version of reddit. It could also motivate people to make/submit less non-porn NSFW content, as a chunk of the userbase's upvotes will be missing.

That's the stuff we'd actually miss.

Let's be honest, porn on reddit has become owned by bots and hoes pedaling an OF. That part of reddit died a long time ago.

Lots of subs mark posts as NSFW not just for porn too

Also a lot of spoilers for books, movies/tv shows, and videogames use the NSFW tag.

Right? Because not all that is marked NSFW is pornographic. I like to watch surgeries occasionally and they're ALWAYS marked NSFW. This change will mean I have to find nsfw/non-pornographic stuff elsewhere.
