I'm still curious about a few things. Will subreddits be able to opt-in to be classified as "indecent"? And if so, will there be oversight on that? What if r/games decides to be "indecent" so that reddit doesn't earn money from that subreddit and to keep exposure limited?
Also, who classifies it? Is something like r/atheism, freethough, or christianity indecent because it can and does offend people? Could r/askhistorians or askscience be indecent? Some people are offended by historical and scientific truths.

It will be interesting to see how Reddit handles it. The only good option I see for Reddit there is to try to win the mods over.
- kbenson 11y agoWell, if they want to risk being automatically included in whatever extra disincentives reddit comes up with later as well, that's their choice. It seems like a shortsighted choice to me, but then again given certain subreddits and mods inclination to call upon a mob to further their own agenda (doe not call up Any that you cannot put downe), I don't doubt it will happen.
