      The market is already pretty saturated, though. There are so many other places to view this type of content and in a better format than a link aggregator.

      Like, wouldn’t Pornhub be a more streamlined way to look at porn? Or whatever other porn website?

      I never understood the appeal of porn on reddit. I always just blocked the porn subs and went about my business.

      Having said all that, I totally agree that it should be allowed or perhaps even encouraged. It’s a free and open system - let the people do what they want. Even if I personally don’t understand the appeal.

        You’re probably right. I think it matters more to content creators than consumers? Like, posting porn to Reddit is often advertising? And like anything, people must get some form if satisfaction interactions on specialty subs. You can’t just go to Pornhub and upload your favorite foot porn, right? Get upvotes, get that tiny dose of dopamine. Get to comment about how beautiful the girl is, hoping maybe she’ll like your complement more than the other thirsty guys’.

        Social media, man. Interaction, even meaningless… it’s its own drug.
