Porn and nudity mods are ones of the most numerous\popular categories for decades. Steam can’t allow that.

Kiss goodbye to your Skyrim mods that add Thomas the tank engine characters as dragons, Spiderman as a playable character, LOTR characters and weapons, etc.
As much as I think steam workshop is great and convenient, it shouldn’t be the only accessible option.
