Last week, Discord made some changes to its “not-safe-for-work” (NSFW) policies. As part of the guideline overhaul, its iOS app began blocking access to all NSFW communities and servers. Many users and moderators were not pleased with finding themselves locked out of their mobile communities.
The blowback was significant enough that this week Discord has dialed back the ban a bit. Users of the iOS Discord app can now opt-in to NSFW servers as long as they are 18+ years old. The only servers still banned are those “specifically focused on explicit pornographic content.” While these will remain entirely locked out on the iOS app, users still have access via the desktop app or web browser.
