    A great question, porn/sexuality is a great deal for many users (me, included) and Reddit tried to make them go away or at least hide them; I have no idea why is it not allowed in so many Lemmy instances (if not all of them) but I hope that changes in the not so far future, otherwise we’re going to be missing one of the biggest reasons people use Reddit and might not move to a Lemmy instance.

      It’s not allowed in a lot of instances because the moderation is absolutely exhausting and sometimes NSFL material.

      The only limiting factor here is admins + moderators of an instance willing to put themselves through that.

        I have no idea what kind of person wants to do that sort of thing, but they do exist.

        Perhaps we should send PMs to all the porn subreddit mods and ask them if they’d be interested in moderating a porn reddit on lemmy?

        I’d be curious to know which porn subreddits are scheduled to go dark on the 12th. Are there any reddit porn connoisseurs here that can do that research and let us know which subreddits mods might be upset at reddit and interested in migrating here?

        So we need two lists:

        1. List of porn subreddits with upset mods
        2. List of lemmy instances that would be down to host some porn communities
