One of my big gripes with the manga subreddit was the focus on constant character objectification. It's fine if you like that, but there were always tons oneshots and fan-art that were basically porn, instead of focusing on an interesting story.

Do you think things will be different this time? Do you want them to be?

Generally I lean personally towards that kind of stuff, but it does tend to over perform, I think an idea solution would be something like.

  1. Tags for this sort of stuff, like erotic/one shot

  2. By default they are filtered out, and are opt-in.

It's important to make it opt in so that people who filter out ecchi don't end up in a ghost town.

I love this idea. I was one of the ones that couldn't stand the low-effort, fanbox bait. It was essentially 1-4 panels of vague story, with some kind of mental illness. With a link to the porn version. Would be super happy with an opt-in model.
