Lemmy NSFW

Not specifically about the instance but people only here to solicit customers for onlyfans cheapen the place, it would be nicer if there was a community for selling, and the rest didn't allow that.

Yeah, I'm out. I was enjoying this instance at first, but it clearly has shown itself to not be hentai friendly. The rules are way too strict, and are about to get even stricter?? I was going to attempt to work within the rules anyway with my communities, but banning @paddedperson has shown me that I don't infact want to stay here at all. They were running most of the hentai communities here and we were starting to work together to make our communities even better. They had legitimate concerns about the rules that were not being addressed. I've also stated my concerns in this post and have not had any response.

I feel like the admins are disproportionately biased against drawn/hentai artwork.

A lot of the gonewild communities here are allowing unverified reposted images, and I’d venture a random guess that maybe 30% of the content is posted without the model’s knowledge or permission, which poses issues with privacy/consent law (etc).

So why ban hentai scat/bestiality communities yet leave the actually illegal communities untouched? If the admins were as strict with IRL content as they were with hentai, all of these legally questionable communities should be “temporarily” banned until better moderation tools exist.

There’s clearly a double standard here that exists.

One other issue I’m having is following users. Is that possible? Or am I just missing it?

Maybe this is just a problem I’m having, but I can’t access LemmyNSFW with my VPN (Proton VPN) on. I typically have it running all the time, but it seems even more important that it work considering the subject matter.
