It is right now super frustrating to be in the situation I do not see vast amounts of the lemmyverse, because of it.
One of the reason I joined this is because the sharp blocking of NSFW content goes against my principles of sexpositivity and I don’t believe a free community can exist without acknowledging that part of the user group. Nobody banned reddit for having gonewild, so what is going on here?
I don’t know a lot about how lemmy works but let me ask a question.
Would it be possible to crate a new federation just focused on NSFW?
So the way federation works, that just kinda naturally happens as nsfw instances are fine with each others’ content and other instances aren’t.
lemmynsfw isn’t being blocked from all federation, it’s just one big instance that won’t federate with us. That means users on that instance won’t see content from here, and that comments from accounts here won’t make it to that instance.
Any other lemmy server, such as other nsfw instances, are perfectly able to federate with us.
Thanks for the explanation!
