What are the admins going to do? Moderate? If the moderators are approving NSFW posts, the sub is NSFW... Heck I'm not sure if they have to go that far. On r/cigars every single post is NSFW because cigars are Satan. Just do that to all the subs so every single post requires you to click to reveal the NSFW content. It'll be like NSFW roulette. Heads, it's a helpful guide to setting up a service on the cloud. Tails, it's goatse.

    Throw in some random gore there for the nuclear option. NSFL is NSFW. And reddit never bothered to distinguish the two so let them down in yet more of their own poor decisions

    Worse than that, Reddit banned all the NSFW subs from /all but DIDN'T ban the NSFL sub. So now instead of and unfiltered /all, with a mix of all the best everything, it's now a curated collection of no porn and the occasional gore.

    The tobacco pipe subs are NSFW as well. This was forced on them a few years ago by the admins as they seem to have a big thing against tobacco, but subs for substances much more harmful, like cocaine, are not NSFW.
