Making popular subreddits NSFW clearly hurts them, because Reddit has been forcing them to switch it off. They’ve also been forcing subreddits to reopen if they’ve been restricted. So those two options aren’t really very viable for every sub.

I suspect this one hurts them too because this post is not visible any more unless you go directly to it or via the pics subreddit - despite it being newer and having more votes than other posts in there that are on the homepage and in popular.

If even a quarter of the people that upvoted this post clicked through to the request form they’re gonna have tens of thousands of these requests to deal with.
