Back in the day, we tried to get Reddit unblocked in our country, which blocks porn websites. No amount of arguments can convince the government agency in charge of the block list that Reddit is not a porn site. They probably got tired of us pestering them and send back a whole bunch of screenshots of porns in Reddit to justify the block.

I guess Reddit is a porn site.

"Look at all this stuff that you're not allowed to look at."

Seriously though, what government is not letting you slap the salami in this day and age?

They did blur the screenshots though, but yeah, pretty much flexing that they can browse anything without restriction in their office, lmao.

It's Indonesia btw. That reminds me, I do have a concern about Lemmy instances that use .id TLD (e.g. lemdro.id). It's Indonesian TLD, so it might subject to Indonesian law, so they'll might run into trouble if they federate with porns communities. Might be a similar situation where websites with .ly TLD got into trouble with Libyan government back then.

That's the goal of all censors - undisputed authority. You can't argue with what you can't see.

India maybe. Also Australia banned hentai.

[โ€“] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

That's hilarious. Just picturing the Australian federal police raiding poor neckbeards and NEETs to confiscate their hentai stash. Heaven forbid horny cartoons be allowed to corrupt the youth lol.

In my 10+ years of using Reddit never once did I visit a NSFW sub. It's always been a forum for sharing information for me.

I had multiple accounts, one for work and one for drugs, porn, and piracy.

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Every now and then there were a couple I would check in on.

But I figured why bother when there are dedicated sites just for porn.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

With a good app and a dedicated account it was possible to create a curated selection that was easy to 'browse' one handed.

Truer words have never been spoken. Nic(h)e porn, nic(h)e hobbies. It's time to rebuild here. Also it still blows my mind to hear about the amount of money people used to throw on customizible avatars & awards( 3k, like how tf do you even live at this point)

I think Ian Malcom's quote "porn will find a way" helps alleviate that. Porn has always been at the forefront of new tech. I think this will be that way too but hopefully we have responsible admins who help to make it only true if you look for it.

you underestimate how many kinky furry technologists there are on the fediverse ;)

That's all I use it for now anyways.

[โ€“] [email protected] 30 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Guilt free too since they can't monopolize nsfw content. Well, mostly guilt free..

[โ€“] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well, they can't monopolize it either, and don't call me Shirley.

Don't kinkshame! :P

You need to be careful with all the subs marking themselves as NSFW in protest. I found myself slapping the salami over /r/DIY by mistake.

Yours is better looking too

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Yours is better written. You should collaborate.

[โ€“] [email protected] 22 points 1 year ago

your username lmao

Reddit had terrible performance and was just lame. I am so glad they fell apart and brought me to Lemmy. It blows it away.

[โ€“] [email protected] 26 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Whilst developing sync I've been constantly surprised how goddamn fast Lemmy is.

At this point, PornHub is a better social media platform

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Twitter and Instagram are also escort hookup sites

[โ€“] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

am I the only one who didn't use deaddit for p0rnโ€ฝ

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Never used it for p0rn, only to find new ways to spend money and get my dumb self informed about tech topics I was interested in

Thats what the children of my friends class thought, too.
