So is marking the sub nsfw a viable option? It seems like Reddit is pushing back on that.

Reddit is pushing back, but from talking to other mods in the mod coord, the only ones who have been fully demodded are ones that allowed explicit content. Just marking as NSFW seems okay, the linux subreddits have all done that. PoE even has good justification for going NSFW, the game is rated M for nudity, gore, violence, etc, and the subreddit does use profanity in about 25-30% of all posts (I checked via the poereddit.com database)

So, if the community wants it, I expect we’ll do it unless something changes

Have you considered the move r/politicalhumor made by giving everyone (limited) mod powers?

I hadn’t heard about it until you saw it, looking at it now huh, that’s pretty interesting. I worry about the users who post every day but generally expose lightly-toxic behavior abusing this. I suppose it’s only temporary though. Will keep an eye on it

What are your thoughts on Captain Lance’s video?

I saw that and I regret that we didn’t make our poll 1) more simple and 2) more clear about what ‘nsfw’ means. Those were communication failures on our part. It was an honest mistake, but we should’ve caught it.
