Any critiques, desire for clarity, outright hatred, whatever have you. I will respond the best I can.

I know there’s been some blowback on some of the policy updates but it’s been difficult to really explain fully that the restrictive content policy is temporary, this community was very unmanaged for a time and it had to be reigned in somehow and with the limited tools at disposal the temporary policy changes were made.

Here’s a comment that also explains a little bit behind the decisions made recently as well.

For community mods, we have a community mod coord matrix group chat now. Feel free to DM about it.

Also, there’s another ongoing discussion regarding SFW communities on lemmyNSFW here.

    Can the system generate a table of communities?

    Maybe it gets updated weekly?

    With name, category, subscriber count, etc.

    The database must be accessible to a bot somehow that could do this.

        Thank you yes. It’d be great to have them categorised in some way though. I love how in /r/nsfw411 you could visit the wiki and see a HUGE table of subs, by category. Was amazing.

        But, I’m not complaining. I LOVE that this is here and thank you SO much for the time and effort. It’s simply a suggestion, as I assume the database can be harvested by a bot to automate something similar.

          Communities don’t have that metadata of “type” or “genre” or “kink” lol - that would have to be manually generated and maintained.

          I am open to developing some way to do that, but I don’t know what. And in any case, I can’t be the one to write those descriptions.
