How does it do that? I've never seen anything of the sort.
Via subreddit rules. If you link your work and then say “I made this” you get criticized for self promotion. You almost always need a 3rd party to introduce your work.

#62I had some of my content censored following the acquisition by Yahoo. It happened to other folk too. I really wish there wouldn't be this shame around bodies, sexuality and gender identity that companies enforce with their censorship algorithms.

#63It's interesting to see Tumblr described in many articles/forums as primarily for pornography. Tumblr has been the biggest user acquisition channel (and a free one, at that) for my startup, which has nothing to do with pornography. We've gained tens of thousands of users in a few days from a single user post, and several user posts have accumulated 50,000+ notes. This is all thanks to the strong accessibility groups…

Here is one plausible theory: http://www.rationaloptimist.com/blog/the-censorious-age
it's mostly observations, not theory. And he doesn't even touch on the Spanish Inquisition that sprang out of silicon valley and anti-Trump media after his election.

Thanks for the share. It's good to hear about successful user adoption strategies like this. Have you tried Mastodon for this topic as well? I'm curious if the same niche topic adoption works on any other alternative social media platforms? What's the name of your startup? Can you provide a link to the Tumblr page?
My startup is BeeLine Reader [1], which launched via an unexpectedly successful Show HN. Our Tumblr page is not very impressive — almost all of the traction there was from organic user posts.

As compared to 30 years ago. if you follow the graph on the article that I assume you are referring to that was on the front page a few weeks ago, the number of sexual partners in the 1900s was 2-3. Its predicted that number of sexual partners will be 8 for this generation compared to last generations 9. Not a big jump in my perview.
the socioeconomic situation and religion was way too different in the 1900s to compare. The shift in attitudes since the 90s on the other hand is remarkably large https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2018/12/the-sex...
