Comment on I created a Linux community thats focused on easy customizations for every Linux distro

I subbed if only to stop the stupid reddit trend of adding porn to a sfw community name, makes us look like horny teenagers. I still remember trying to get people into reddit way back when, “you should check out /r/earthporn!.. No no no, it has no porn it’s just pics of nature and… Yeah, it’s a dumb name…”

Language changes. “porn” has been used to express “visually stimulating imagery” and “simulacra of the real activity” for quite some time. There is nothing dumb about appending porn to the SFW subreddits, because there is no better expression (*) to succintly express that those subs are not made for deep/meaningful discussion.

(*) Maybe it could work with “obsession” or “fetish”, but the pearl-clutching crowd would also criticize the sexual connotation.
