Why change of the name?

I’ve had multiple users express to me that they would like to see a name change to lose the porn moniker. If it makes people more comfortable then I’m fine with it.

Maybe it’s because I used reddit for 3 years but I didn’t see anything wrong with “porn” in the name. Probably because pretty much everything had this word in the title name so I had to get used to it haha.

I had been using Reddit since 2011 and didn’t see anything wrong with it either. That sub was actually part of the non-porn, porn subs like earthporn, foodporn, humanporn, etc. I just wanted Redditors to be able to find something familiar, but I don’t mind changing the name at all. I’m going to make a poll tomorrow to see if there’s a general consensus on what the name should be. Someone suggested something descriptive like “Space is Beautiful”, which I actually like and it may be better if the community here ever incorporates more discussion in addition to images, but we’ll see.
