    When has banning porn ever been profitable? Look at tumblr.

      Some one somewhere is dumb enough to select the worst possible business decision for their niche audience. Look at tumblr.

      Some one is going to see banning porn will bump up ad revenue without caring that it kills the platform. Got to keep the inverters happy.

      Or OnlyFans 😆 They almost went out of business. It was really disingenious to have a porn site… ban porn? 🤔 😶

      I don’t think porn is a huge part of Reddit though. I always loved the way they had these great amateur communities of real exhibitionists, but lately things have been ruined anyway with more commercial people just teasing their onlyfans.

      But due to the niche communities there, I think reddit banning porn would be a real opportunity for lemmynsfw. A mainstream community is much harder to move but a niche community can move pretty rapidly.
