> How exactly is Reddit a "porn filled shit hole"? I don't see any porn in the vast majority of subreddits. Nobody forces you to visit the rest, and they are typically even marked adult-only.

My bad, I should have said "reddit is a porn spammer filled shit hole" on top of really being a "porn filled shit hole" /s

The fact that you feign being oblivious to all the CSAM, depraved porn and revenge porn hosted on reddit really doesn't make any difference.

The point isn't that that content doesn't exist there.

The point is that as a Reddit user, you won't see that content unless you disable your NSFW filter and go searching for it.

Because the platform is moderated.

The point is that people use reddit to hotlink depraved, illegal porn images and videos and spam these media on other forums. That depraved content is not moderated, it should not be possible to hotlink porn material from reddit. The platform is not moderated like you claim, a checkbox in the preferences is not moderation, if evading "moderation" consist simply in hotlinking porn hosted on reddit.

That's completely tangential to the stated problem though.

That sounds like your own personal beef, which as we can see from Reddit would not hamper user growth.

No it isn't "tangential", it is what makes reddit a "porn filled shit hole", these are your own words.

Sounds like you have your own personal beef against reddit alternatives when reddit itself is a "porn filled shithole" which you refuse to acknowledge for some reason.
