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.
Ya I hope that’s not an issue. I think as the instance grows and people find “loopholes” to exploit, the issue becomes a balancing act of “how much moderation and manual effort does this rule require” - ideally we can build the tools necessary to make rules easily enforceable without being overly restrictive. Time will tell.
I mean ultimately, the goal is to provide a space that gives creators like you a good outlet to share your content without burdening remote instances with the overhead and complexities that adult content brings. We’re not here to make money, we’re out here trying to make the fediverse a better place overall so that creators like you aren’t beholden to corporations like reddit.
I guess we’ll see if we succeed or fail!
Makes sense!! I understand you guys are brand new and need to work out a lot. As a creator, I’m trying to find places to post that won’t delete my account like the bigger sites and apps. It is awful to constantly get my accounts deleted. I’m willing to be patient with a platform that could have more longevity and won’t delete me just because I do adult work
