Collective’s mission is to create an inclusive space for people to connect through art and creativity. We don’t allow explicit content because we believe the risks associated outweigh the potential benefits. It can create an unsafe or uncomfortable atmosphere for some people, particularly those who are younger or come from cultural backgrounds where such content is not considered appropriate. There are many other reasons why we don’t allow this type of content: Collective may show a warning over this type of content and it won’t be recommended to other people or appear in the Discover tab.
