Apple actually has been on a big crusade against any semblance of sexual content on the Store since early 2021, actually - Discord is now forced to hide all servers with NSFW content on iOS and a few art apps(e.g. Procreate) have removed art with sexual content from their sharing platform in recent updates. I assume this is related to the case. Discord is sort of like a browser for people under 20 now.

Discord already gave up on that, and it was probably part of their discussions with Microsoft about a merger, not an app store thing. Tumblr's porn ban was popularly thought to be an app store thing, but it was more likely about sex trafficking laws.

  This is still a thing. https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500005389362-NSFW-Server-Designation https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/1500005389362-... > Additionally, a subset of NSFW servers that are specifically focused on explicit pornographic content will be blocked entirely on iOS. iOS users aged 18+ will only be able to join and access these dedicated pornography servers on the desktop and web versions of Discord. I don't think anything like this would be part a MS merger which is apparently now off the table.

    The one everyone remembers is that Discord was going to ban all NSFW channels on any server. This is no longer happening.

      The version I remember is that Discord was going to opt out everyone from NSFW channels, and require ID to prove am accounts age before opting in. This may or may not still be happening, but is much more extreme than the current rules.

    "a thing" is still happening, but it's vastly reduced from the original version.
