TIL that Reddit is banning smaller porn subreddits and aren’t allowing users to claim them in redditrequest to make way for their eventual ban on NSFW content. So I’m looking for NSFW alternatives in any Fediverse platform.

    @ImOnADiet Ah, gotcha, I haven’t really gotten into Lemmy, I can’t quite figure out how to use it, searches for the things I follow on Reddit come up empty, so I’m not sure if’n they’re not there or I’m just not looking in the right place.
    I think Lemmy would be a great replacement for Reddit if’n there was some kind of index for the groups on there, that way it doesn’t matter the server you’re on, you’re guaranteed to find what you’re looking for.

        @ImOnADiet I’ve tried that before, and unfortunately it doesn’t bring up anything I follow on Reddit, like Canoo, St Louis (there are two tiny MO groups), or Ford Maverick, let alone any of the porn.

          ah, yeah lemmy’s still too small right now to have that niche of communities I think, and also I’ve only seen that one instance that’s allowing porn so far

            @ImOnADiet Oh? More to the point, I think it’s size is a byproduct of confusion, finding an instance, or more importantly, finding a community, is tricky, as there doesn’t seem to be an easy way and obvious way to find them like Reddit it. Lemmy, or anything comparable (I think there’s two others, one dead, one live) needs to make it just as easy if they expect to grow. Creating a way communities could be followed similar to how users are followed would also help.

              I’m unsure what you mean? You do subscribe to communities on lemmy just like reddit, you can search for communities here on lemmy by making sure you have all selected. The only time it can be a little hard is if no one from your instance has subscribed to those communities, but power users take care of that normally

                @ImOnADiet Forgot to respond, sorry. I’m referring to finding communities, that doesn’t work too well, so maybe indexing all the communities would help with that, it could be done in a DNS like way where the same index is available on multiple servers to reduce the load on any one of them. This might also help with community fracturing (same subject on multiple instances) too.
