This includes some porn subreddits as well as subreddits like /r/Drugs. Apparently due to being "unmoderated", but some were not. What are your thoughts?

Edit: apparently also subreddits like /r/transgender_surgeries is banned too. Definitely feels politically motivated.

In my experience it is better to segregate NSFW and SFW accounts. Not because it is shameful and I don't want people seeing, but because NSFW floods feeds and I can't get anything done when encumbered by pretty naked women. lol

And it's pretty wild when trying to scroll anything in public or with people nearby.

Not an issue I have to contend with personally as I don't use anything other than my laptop at home when I want to be on the internet, but a very valid reason to separate NSFW from SFW social media nonetheless.
