Almost all instances don’t wants nsfw on their site. So I opened this site to fill the pussy. I mean gap.
Activate NSFW for your account
To see NSFW content, you should activate “Show NSFW content” checkbox at your account settings.
Should we change the domain?
Some guy said the domain is very obvious. He may be right. What do you think about it? Poll link. If yes, any recommendations?
Edit: It seems like most people don’t care about domain. So I’m not changing it. Maybe in the future if Lemmy let us, we can mirror the instance on other domain.
Communities
The domain is very obvious? Is that bad? Very succinct in what to expect when going here.
It’s bad that it’s saved in the browser history. We’ll see in results. IDK lemmy.baby is a funny domain I think :)
Well isn’t that true for any URL? If I visit kittenpics.com/c/MilfsShittingOnChests the domain is not really the issue.
As I added to the post, I will mirror domain with safer one hopefully.
Ah thanks
That’s what incognito mode is for if its a problem. Or you can access from another instance. I think the current times an obvious URL is a huge benefit.
NSFW isn’t exclusive to sex.
The current rules don’t exclude hardcore gore like /r/darwinawards, etc.
If this current instance is aimed towards porn it should have been mentioned in detail. Currently, I expect gore communities to move over here, including ones with footage from the current Ukraine war like /r/combatfootage or /r/ukrainewarvideoreport.
Yeah you are right. I’ll open a poll about it. If the vast majority don’t want gore, I’ll edit the rules accordingly. See https://lemmynsfw.com/post/264
Is there a preferred media hosting site we should use for posting here?
Scaling
How will this instance scale to take on more users?
It already seems to struggle.
Edit: Cannot make posts in the meta community, so I’m commenting here instead.
Removed by mod
Is there any kind of instance-wide rules page yet? Pre-2012 reddit was a real wild west, and I see some old subs cropping up already eg c/zoophilia. Inevitably the questions are going to come up about loli, jb, public creepshots, fappening, real incest, and everything else that was banned from old reddit. New reddit bans stuff that’s even a little questionable even in drawn form, so a lot of “newer” redditors (<10 cake days) could be shocked. Hosting this stuff will also probably be used as a reason to say “lemmy users are sick, don’t go over there” as well. Personally I prefer anything that’s not literally illegal in the US to be allowed, but if you want to attract reddit users and have this be the main NSFW instance that is probably a bad idea.
When I saved this site as an app on my phone it is called Lemmy with the same icon as regular Lemmy and I’d like it to be LemmyNSFW or something so I can distinguish the two. Any thoughts?
Depending on your launcher, you may be able to long-press the icon and edit/rename it. I can do this on Android.
I long press it and all I get is select or remove. I’m on Samsung. 🤷
Try the Nova launcher, I guess? It’s what I use.
Is there an obvious way to tag submissions as NSFW on jerboa for android? I can’t seem to find a tagging option before submitting content.
It would be nice if there were fewer pinned posts at the top of the page regardless of how you sort.

This is terribly pedantic. NSFW is concise, to the point, identifiable, and most importantly-searchable.
The Dark Side (of lemmy).
On a serious note tho, NSFW is really just a term that’s come to encompass all things porn when used in a context like this. It’s not really a super technical term, but generally speaking anything NSFW is really just an umbrella term for all things lewd!
(LewdLemmy?)
wait, LEWMY?
NSFW is an acronym that has been around for multiple decades and pretty clearly communicates the kind of content you’re going to see/hear. It’s a solid baseline that most people are going to have a rough approximation of what they’re going to see.
Every company has a handbooks and guidelines for what is appropriate in an office setting and for the most part are pretty consistent in what is and isn’t appropriate across the vast majority people’s work experiences (ignoring that management probably doesn’t want people wasting time on social media anyway). If you wouldn’t keep it on your desk at work, or say it to another employee without getting sent to HR.
Don’t forget a lot of online terminology originated because computers used to be pretty much exclusively the domain of corporations, government orgs, and colleges like 30-40 years ago.
