Comment on feddit.online will live on as a PieFed instance
cacheson@piefed.social 1 month agoYou seem to be implying that I'm arguing something that I'm not? This thread started with me lamenting that piefed.social accounts are prohibited from accessing NSFW communities, and inquiring whether feddit.online would have the same policies. Along with some commentary on the general state of the threadiverse's culture.
Note that I haven't asked either admin to *host* said communities, and I specifically acknowledged the caching issue. Nor am I advocating for them to be treated on absolutely equal footing; they're specially marked so that people who don't want to see them can filter them out, which I think is a good thing.
what do you think will happen if you create an online space and put a big billboard saying "here you will always be free to share your NSFW content"?
If you're specifically advertising it as focused on that, then that's likely what you'll get. If you allow NSFW but don't center it, you'll end up with something like Reddit, Twitter, or pre-ban Tumblr. While there are things to criticize about those sites, very little of it has to do with porn.
Content discovery of porn should not be as easy and it should not be trivialized under the pretense of "sex positivity".
Why? That absolutely sounds like a sex-negative attitude to me. It's treating sexuality as something toxic that needs to be suppressed and hidden even from those that are interested in seeing it. Sex positivity means treating sexuality as a normal thing that is not unusual for people to be interested in.

You lamented the fact that unlogged users can not see it and that they can not be found as easily. This is the same as “make it available to the public without any type of check”.
Sexuality != Porn, and “toxicity” is dose-dependent. Eating a bit of broccoli is good for you. Too much at once and you get thyroid dysfunction.
There are plenty of things that are good and normal, but need to be discussed/presented with a proper context and (most importantly) people need to have a better understanding of the potential bad consequences if it is abused or corrupted.
You don’t see young people destroying their lives because they were promised they could make a lot of money by knitting sweaters or working as electricians, but cases of vulnerable women who regret getting into sex work are infinite.
