Please try to be as active as you can. Don’t just come here, fap and then leave. Try to contribute and interact with the communities here. Because it’s not the numbers that will drive growth for Lemmy but the engagement. Even if you don’t want to contribute, you can always comment and interact by downvoting or upvoting posts.
We need to work together to ensure the best success we possibly can for Lemmy and the wider Fediverse.
Fuck Reddit, let’s all try to move away from that absolute shitshow.
On another note: If you can’t view the Lemmy NSFW communities, check out the other locally pinned post for some potential communities you could join.
Spread the Word about Lemmy NSFW if you can, as many instances don’t like hosting NSFW content.
Build your own Community. No fetish is too niche, try creating your own communities to help grow Lemmy NSFW further! (Make sure your community follows all instance-wide rules, though!).
If they’re promoting their only fans in a community that doesn’t explicitly state in their rules that promoting is OK, then the poster is violating an instance-wide rule and you should report their post.
What if an OF model posts in a community that doesn’t explicitly allow self-promotion but they don’t make any reference to their OF in the post itself, hoping people will check their bio which does link to their OF?
This was a thing that happened on Reddit and was kinda controversial.
At that point where someone’s going outside their way to look into bios of posters, I think it makes very little sense to try to stop them. And anybody who doesn’t want to be advertised to can just… not look at bios.
Of course this line of thinking relies on the quality and relevance of posts models will make.
On Reddit many of them seem to use bots or something to post the same pic/clip to as many NSFW subreddits as possible, using horrible clickbait titles (such as lying about sending nudes to anyone who upvotes them. That’s not even possible)
So some post-quality rules may be needed.
Interesting this would have been controversial. I normally would look in their bios precisely to try and see if they had an OF, which sometimes was a welcomed surprise. I added many people as follows/friends/etc because of that.
It’s pretty silly if you ask me, but I thought it was important to ask since they have such a strict policy here.
Sounds good, thanks for the reply!
