As admins, we removed the scat communities, thinking that scat was covered by the NSFL. However, some people have opposing views on this matter. What do you think about it? If people want it allowed, then we can restore content.

Edit: My answer for friends in the comments; The main reason NSFL was banned is because we currently don’t have the tools to separate porn from NSFL. I’m in favor of the ban because I think its the same way in scat. If we had enough tools right now, we wouldn’t be ban the NSFL either. Although, I agree that voting for niche fetishes doesn’t make sense.
Edit 2: Also I don’t want to think about shit anymore. I’m out 😀 https://lemmynsfw.com/post/117500
VPN Votes not allowed.
My vote is that we ban it here. I think the best solution for these issues is to have at least two NSFW instances. One that’s more tightly moderated and more socially acceptable, and a second that’s run with a more Libertarian wildboi flair. Business up front, party in the back. Maybe call the other one something like LemmyTrueNSFW, or LemmyWildNSFW, or something like that. This is how Federation achieves censorship-resistance. It allows a space for those on the fringe, while preventing the fringe from overwhelming the normie majority.
I like this option, I agree that while It’s not something I’m into I feel like we should not kink shame those who are. Creating a second instance for the more taboo things allows for it to exist but we still won’t see it while browsing ‘All’ in lemmynsfw. But it’s there for those who want to subscribe to it.
Actually it would still show up in All as long as at least one user on this instance is subscribed to a community on the other one. Just not in Local.

This is a very good idea tbh.
I guess I have a couple of those, from time to time. Damned if I know when one is coming, though.
A business front instance and a pro bono back there.
