Can we talk about porn on Lemmy? (lemmy.ml)

submitted 1 year ago by stupidsexylemmy@lemmy.ml to c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

NSFW 40 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Mostly as in....where is it?

I've found a few NSFW communities, but most of those seem to be mostly cheesecake shots of celebrities - yeah, they're NSFW as in I wouldn't want my boss to see me looking at them at work, and it would probably get HR all hot and bothered, but....it doesn't actually do that much for me?

Where's the equivalent of r/gonewild? As a reddit refugee, if we don't bring all the hot girls who show their boobs with us, the terrorists have won, frankly.

(yes, I know the pro move here would be to only use reddit for NSFW content because they can't monetize it....but come on, federated tits).

Tbf we don't have a lot yet. But we're a young community that actually leans older in many regards, so not having huge porn collections to dump isn't super surprising. It'll grow over time.

If anyone can contribute though, please do so. Porn is an important element in retaining users. Not attracting them in the first place, but helping keep them here by giving them hot stuff to look at.

Yeah this was my impression as well. But I'm ancient and I still like porn, so....I was kind of hoping that more of the replies were 'nobody is brave enough to host it' because that would give me an excuse to chase my porn magnate dreams, but it sounds like lemmynsfw.com is a thing.

Off to do the good work of hornifying the world.

tbf, world hosts porn, it's completely allowed here. Like a week ago some rando claimed like 40 clearly porn subs and then posted a few things, then I think quit. lol I haven't seen him since anyway.

But go wherever your heart leads you, noble traveller.

Updooted for good advice, awesome name, and calling my porn quest 'noble' when it clearly is anything but.
