I find negative reviews are a lot more scathing and off putting too, mostly because those who have a bad product are much louder about it

I’m ashamed to say I’m still using Reddit

Perhaps subscribe to communities that aren’t for porn!

I think the problem with your suggestion is that NSFW-ness more of a spectrum.
