How is this even legal in india? Reddit openly promotes porn

Reddit's approach to NSFW content raises some serious concerns. From suggesting NSFW posts to turning on permissions for viewing such content, Reddit seems to be pushing the boundaries in a country where porn is banned.

Reddit’s system is designed to:

  • Suggest NSFW content even when it's not requested.
  • Prompt users to enable permissions for viewing NSFW content.
  • Display NSFW material in nearly every search result.

Given that explicit content is banned in this country, how is Reddit allowed to operate so freely? It seems more like a porn site in disguise than a social platform.

Show NFSW content option is disabled by default. If you enable it, then you know what you are doing.

Moreover, there is no social media which literally blocks pornographic content, be it Twitter, Instagram or even YouTube, even after claiming to do so.

Also, if you think Reddit is just a porn website in disguise, then you've not used Reddit properly.

You can turn it off in main settings. Reddit by default set the setting for show NSFW content off when you create a new account/profile.

It's a setting, just keep it turned off if it bothers you. Reddit pushing NSFW content over others seems like an issue but why do you have a problem with lack of censorship on reddit? Reddit and the internet in general have already been censored a lot over the years and I miss the days when they used to be more free and unmoderated, but of course we can't have good times for long when things start becoming mainstream.
