View submission: Removing sexually explicit content from r/all
So to be clear, this is filtering out by the new sureddit classification system and not a blanket removal of all posts tagged NSFW from /r/all?
Yes
Gore will stay for now, just sexual content is filtered. Because this is america, where tiddies are bad, and people dying in horrible ways is good
For now there won't be an option to customize stuff, they just remove it all. The options come later

For now, yeah.
This is a first step to allowing for more capabilities to filter content on r/all[1] and other listings that many people may (not) want to see.

I think it's just a "the customer is always right" thing. Optimistically, we're the customers and there have been vocal complaints about this issue for many years. Realistically, advertisers are the customer and one of them didn't like porn appearing alongside their ad.
Given that it would have been trivially easy for them to make this a toggle/choice instead of a forced thing, it's probably the latter.
