    No offense, and I’ve seen several people requesting porn, but to me that kind of lowers the level or seriousness of a community. I’m OK if a platforms allows NSFW content, but there’s a difference between actively browsing for porn and getting spam to your account. Porn is a very distracting stuff with addiction potential.

    To me the best thing about forums, reddit, lemmy, etc. is the aggregation of general human knowledge, and it’s better if you don’t have to swim over a load of attention-grabbing content for it.

      At least in the “fediverse” it’s possible to maintain a much cleaner separation between those communities. Like, the server I’m on has this very explicit programming focus (Can’t believe this domain name is a thing 😂) and I’m sure there’s a server out there for horny peeps who just want to look at porn. Both can have drastically different rules in regards to posting, commenting and such and if a server’s admin pulls the plug for one reason or another, the rest of the “network” stays up. 🤷‍♀️

      Would just be nice if there was a way to backup, sync or migrate accounts between federated servers. I expect things will fluctuate quite a bit as many of us take refuge in various servers. Especially if reddit moderation bots get crippled, third party apps die and old.reddit gets the boot, flooding lemmy/kbin servers with more users than some can handle, financially-speaking.

      I was joking for the most part. What I meant was NSFW content. Like nothing too much like porn, like r/upvotebecauseboobs or r/hornyjail, stuff like that. I mean, I like tech news and being serious, but I also like to see something just whacked from time to time… or some boobies 😂. What can I say, I’m married 🤷 😂.
