Hi, reddit refugee here. I saw the rule in the main post stating that this instance will not allow NSFW content for now due to the legal ramifications & moderating needs. I 100% understand and agree with that decision, however, does this mean that I (as a user registered to sh.itjust.works) cannot subscribe to, read, or post in NSFW communities on other instances? Posts belong to a single community and communities belong to a single lemmy instance, correct? If my assumption here is correct, there's no risk to sh.itjust.works from interacting with these external communities, so long as we dont try to host a new one here, right?

A given instance can say no NSFW but other instances can allow it. If the two instances are federated together you can subscribe to, and view, whatever the other instance provides.

Doesn’t that cause this instance to cache all the posts from that Community? Wouldn’t that violate the wishes of the owners of your instance, since they are now hosting the cache of the NSFW content?

Text is cached but images aren't rehosted.
