There's explicit content in reddit which is allowed in App Store. Also there's parental controls in iOS, Safari respects that setting while other browsers do not, so other browsers are 18+ in AppStore.

AFAIK explicit content is allowed in AppStore as long as you're clearly separate it from non-explicit with a setting.

Example: Telegram blocks channels known for containing porn. You can disable the block, but only through a setting in Telegram Web (and no mention of that is allowed inside the app).

I think that’s stupid, inconsistent, benefits nobody and only makes for a bad UX, but I guess the argument, as always, is “think of the children”.
