    First GW OC poster to post an image of herself (sorry boys) naked holding a can of beans is going to melt this place down faster than KBins backed up queue.

      It’s pretty easy. Just don’t go to lemmynsfw.com. hopefully, we’ll get a way to subscribe to block all communities on another instance with a single click at some point to make this easier.

            create an account on that instance

            I was told I could create an account anywhere on the fediverse and it wouldn’t matter, I’d see everything. If I need to create an account every time I want to see some booba, that’s not very seamless. Can I not just subscribe and see it on this lemmy.world account?

            This is all very confusing coming from the one-account-one-site “everything just works” of reddit.

              lemmynsfw isn’t federated with most instances, that’s why. And really, most people had a porn alt on reddit anyway, so they’re used to it

              You don’t necessarily need an account on lemmynsfw.com - you would just need an account to browse NSFW on their homepage. But you can see and interact with all their communities from your current instance.

              Just search for the communities while on lemmy.world - for example [email protected] or [email protected] or whatever. You can click on those.

              Just make sure you have “Show NSFW” enabled on your profile settings

              Now some instances like lemmy.ml decided to block (defederate) from lemmynsfw.com so YMMV

        It seems it’s not federated to this instance. pasting [email protected] in the search bar doesn’t find it.

        EDIT: Oh the irony, The Link above works. The search doesn’t

    Just remember how quickly Tumblr fold after they started banning porn.

    Don’t ever underestimate the power of horniness in which large part of the internet runs on.

      That dead woman called Tumblr is still walking with a healthy strut these days, also soaking up some displaced Redditors. Horny shit is slowly but surely returning to Tumblr’s fields, as well.

      Tumblr illustrates the problem with porn in general, they didn’t shut it down for no reason, they shut it down because the pedos had decided to use it as a dissemination portal for their vile shit, and the structure of Tumblr made it difficult to moderate away, especially at scale. Thus, Apple threatening to pull them from the app store, for good reason. All they could do was go scorched earth on porno.

      So that’s the issue we’re going to have, here, and I’m not sure if the “some guy running an instance for the fuck of it” model is prepared for it.

        The key difference with lemmy is, if that one instance is the one disseminating cp, they get defederated, and so removed from the other normal users, and then if the instance doesn’t shut down, LEO gets involved. The other normal porn-hosting instances can operate business as usual.

          Law enforcement would probably shut down such instances faster than the rest of Lemmy could collectively defederate them.

          Hosting such stuff on the clear web is basically asking for a joint FBI, NCA and other major law enforcement agency raid on your premises.

            The piratebay has been running since 2003 - 2023 on the clear web. Thats how hard it is to take down a website when done properly. With the few times its been down and/or raided thats still 99.99% uptime.

      Technology has more or less flowed with the proliferation of porn. VHS (over Betamax), bluray (over HD-DVD), online payments and other Internet features rose to prominence because pornographic content helped spearhead their adoption.

        I will die on the hill that blu-ray won over HD-DVD purely because the PS3 could play blu-ray and the Xbox 360 couldn’t play either. Blu-ray players were crazy expensive when the PS3 came out, to the point that the PS3 was the cheapest blu-ray player when it came out.

            Porn industries only chose blu-ray once it was already in the PS3. Out of all the HD-DVD players and blu-ray players on the planet combined at the end of the format war 10 out of 11 were PS3s. Also not to mention that almost everyone backed blu-ray and it was the objectively better format. It held 40% more information and was backed by the biggest media companies. On top of the fact blockbuster went blu-ray.

            Honestly it’s very tiresome that everyone says that porn did it when you can look at the facts and see that the war was won by blu-ray from the start and that most porn content was available on both formats for a long time, basically guaranteeing that it couldn’t have affected the outcome. Like I get that “haha porn funny” but it clearly wasn’t the deciding factor, and arguably not a factor at all. Like any cursory look into the history dispels the myth immediately which makes me wonder why everyone feels the need to parrot it as if it’s fact.

    OF models Ruined all the porn subreddits. It went from sources material to some chick having a seizure for 8 seconds hoping you will give her money.

    meh, for me the gonewild crowd peddling their OF accounts and the inevitable thirsty interactions are a sign of a falling porn quality index, really wish something could be done about it. but in one thing you’re right, reddit is done.

      If it’s worth the time to advertise to, it has to have value of some sort. Even if the QOTP Index isn’t real there definitely is one for advertiser willingness.

    People who post or interact with porn also post other stuff.

    Tumblr died after they killed off porn, because porn users left the site. That made Tumblr less interesting for people who followed those porn users’ non-porn content, which meant that some of them left. Which in turn made it worse for people following that second group, and so on.

    The same might happen the other way around. One can only hope.

    Reddit is already showing pinned messages in nsfw posts about using only the official app to browse adult content. Or so I’ve been told.

    Yup. Only reason I still have Reddit is the quality porn. As soon as I can get the same elsewhere, it’s dead to me.

      The one account I kept active over there is my porn account because I’ve spent a lot of time curating my feed and can’t get that anywhere else. Not to mention, Reddit doesn’t get ad revenue from the porn subs.
