Excuse my ignorance im just curious.
Because we dont want to moderate porn, simple as that. Other instances are free to do this differently.
Hard to moderate. Brings influencers and bots. Doesn’t contribute anything that can’t be easily found elsewhere.
influencers
Anything that can cut down on the ability to monetize a platform is worth it.
i hadnt really thought of it until now, and was kind of expecting lemmy/kbin to get infected with porn, but you state some great reasons. i want to be open that i have used porn subs in the past, and i think that porn should 100% be legal. every adult should have the right to express themselves as long as they are not infringing on someone else’s rights or safety.
before onlyfans, /r/gonewild was actually pretty appealing. once the amateur porn scene took off, reddit porn subs became advertisements (“check the comments for my onlyfans 😜🍑”) and spam bots reposting other people’s porn. i really would prefer to avoid that. if someone wants porn, they can go back to reddit or whatever porn dedicated site there is.
btw, i knew a girl who ran one of her own onlyfans-type things. i know it’s annecdotal so my one experience isn’t representative, but she ruined it for me. that girl was complete trash. she still lived with her parents at 24 years old with no ambition other than to live off of others. she proudly stated this. she didn’t work. she had multiple sugar daddies that would financially support her while she would insult them and her customers behind their backs openly to anyone that would listen to her garbage. she had multiple separate ig accounts, each dedicated to a sugar daddy. she would then friend her real friends to show off the “losers” that would support her. the rest of her sisters, while not as bad, were near the same level of toxicity: highly predatory, psychopathically manipulative, and vindictive af. they shared the same social circle that was all the same crap. i fully expect to see at least one of them in the news or jail blotter eventually. i ended up blocking them all on all avenues of communication and recorded me on video telling them that they arent allowed on my property. i also created a highly detailed journal of our interactions, recorded conversations, and kept evidence in case they ever felt like attacking me for setting boundaries.
anyway, in my experience, the persona we see them display on the internet is fake. they’re not some horny person just dying for some internet stranger to hook up with. theyre not a victim of the circumstances theyre trying to escape. they don’t get turned on by being “slutty” just for you. they get turned on by the power to manipulate others at other’s expense. that their real kink: abuse. it becomes disgusting.
again, i know not all online sex workers are this way, and there are certainly the fantastical pornstars and couple’s that aren’t terrible people but some definitely are horrible and we dont actually know which one is which because the public gets a false presentation of who they really are.
thanks for attending my ted talk. ill have a spicy chicken sandwich pls.
I don’t use reddit for p0rn, but the fact is that a lot of reddit users won’t consider lemmy an option unless there’s porn.
Actually, I think it’s important to have one also because it’s better to compartmentalize that shit on its own dedicated instance, anyway.
PSA: WE NEED A PORN INSTANCE. Any takers?
Do you really want more reddit porn users?
The porn would be on it’s own instance not federated with the common Lemmy servers. So it wouldn’t show up in /all.
Those who want porn would have to actively seek it out by connecting to those instances. More over, if one instance starts allowing unacceptable material, the other instances can blacklist it.
edit: I was wrong. Lemmynsfw is indeed federated.
Would be even better if the porn instances started federating, two horny instances federating might make another instance and then that’s how children are made.
Why write it as p0rn, if there’s no censorship in here?
So far Reddit seems to have avoided getting into a lot of trouble by not really hosting images itself much (this is changing, as is imgur’s policies) and by being mostly NOT for it so it doesn’t get noticed. Making an instance for the purpose invites a ton of scrutiny and liability that few people want to deal with. That said nothing’s stopping anyone from spinning up their own instance.
Mastodon was for a while flooded by p0rn and hentai with some very edgy content. That was ridiculous. It was a reason why I left mastodon in the beginning.
My salutations to @nutomic and others mods, that’s a crazy idea to provide an open access platform.
Liability, Noone want to be liable if someone posts CP or other illegal stuff.
I don’t see how the rule makes that any less likely. It still happens, I saw a couple mods have a really bad night last night because of some CP.
Yes but they can just remove all porn in general and don’t need to evaluate the posts…
Do you think people uploading CP are dutifully assigning metadata so that child porn can be filtered out? They don’t care whether porn is allowed or not!
When child porn is uploaded, mods can’t just delete it and go on with life. It has to be reported. It causes the moderators a lot of personal upset and stress. The no porn policy doesn’t seem to have a big impact on that, and I don’t see why it would.
There are lots of reasons they might not want to host porn on their communities. I don’t see the CP angle.
Because that would end up making a good portion of potential users feel uncomfortable using the site. There is no lack of pornography on the Internet, go look at it elsewhere.
Go to horny jail
Go set up your own instance and never raise this subject here again
Not sure why your getting downvoted. That’s the beauty of the fediverse lol
I think its the “never raise this subject here again” Comes off as a bit aggressive.
Absolutely fair, I see that now lol
Never realized this was a lemmy.ml post. Got confused with the downvote there. As beehaw where I’m from has no downvotes.
it’s blocked in your instance, others allow it
because this is lemmy.ml , if you want porn go to one of the nsfw friendly instances like lemmy.burger.rodeo (but I think you need to be logged in for nsfw communities to show up)
Cooking up a platform for Free Thought And Expression! (NSFW &Loli/Shota/Cub friendly!) Minimal Restrictions on Content/Speech.
Hard pass on that dawg.
Exactly. Is it too much to ask to see consensual picture shared by age appropriate people on their own volition? I guess this is why we can’t have nice things.
Usually its anime girls that are actually older than they appear.
Fun fact, that’s a condition that actually occurred to a girl in real life, she looked 12 and visibly didn’t hit puberty, she was 20.
By age appropriate, I mean people older than 18. That seems to be the exception rather than the norm.
Most things I’ve seen were 18+, if only to skirt by the laws. I haven’t seen much though so I may be completely off, but that would seem a little illegal otherwise.
Maybe. I saw some questionable content and ended up leaving.
yeah… there’s that unfortunately
Because we don’t want to watch this crap.
p0rn is not lacking of any “internet” space. Why would you want to put it everywhere.
Hahaha, thank you for speaking the damn truth. I dont understand why it really needs a place on every website. URLs exist for a reason friends
Removed by mod
Many of us do not want porn, so it only makes sense that porn goes into specific instances that people who do not want porn can block out. It’s a freedom of choice thing.

If you wnst that stuff go to pixelfed
For God, please, my country will ban this site if porn exist in this site , GODDD PLEASE.
