This may be more of an “out of the loop” thing, but I’m new to this site and I’m noticing that lemmy.world seems surprisingly bereft of any substantial NSFW content. I’m surprised! Isn’t the adage that porn motivates technological progress?

What’s even more surprising is that the NSFW instance seems brand spanking new.

Is there some code-of-conduct thing which has prevented NSFW community growth? Or is it just a demographic thing where there wasn’t much/any demand until the Reddit exodus?

    Plus, all it takes is some moron posting a picture of an underage girl. If you don’t catch and remove it quick enough, boom, you’re hosting CP and in a world of trouble. Not worth the liability.

      If you don’t catch and remove it quick enough

      Not reporting it can get you a pretty hefty fine. And even if you do report it there are specific challenges regarding storing the evidence and what data you must collect and it’s all a gigantic mess.

      The fact that there is even one instance that are willing to go through all this is more than I expected.
