It’s always interesting to read the experiences of others. The one and only time I stumbled on cp was in the late 90s. Haven’t seen it on reddit or lemmy. Our bubbles keep us isolated.
Comment on Everyday AI looks more like the '08 housing bubble
dick_fineman@discuss.online 3 weeks agoI thought it was the place for people who didn’t want their shitposting interrupted by random child porn. Am…am I in the wrong place???

Unfortunately Lemmy is rife with CSAM too, but the larger instances have done a pretty great job eliminating it.
Smaller instances still get dumped on sometimes.

I disagree with main post and agree with edit. I’ve only seen abuse material on Lemmy once and it was on an instance that didn’t have an automated moderation tool for image uploads and they promptly added that mitigation step after it happened

Suddenly I’m extremely worried about using lemmy. What’s the right way to respond if something is seen. Call the police? FBI hotline or something? Certainly screenshotting anything to send to authorities is out of the question but as soon as an image is loaded a device downloads it to cache so it’s like a dirty bomb just sitting on your device at that point. I have been blissfully ignorant that anything I use in my day to day would ever share a space with such abhorrent behavior. Kind of not sure I should still use the service, like that has actually been an issue on here before?

You’re fine, they go after the ones sharing it, of course if you want to tell authorities you can, just you’re not going to get in trouble for accidentally stumbling upon some asshat being a pedo. It does very much keep me from wanting to run my own instance though.

Happy to say I haven’t seen that shit here yet…unlike Reddit and 4chan.

Same, and additionally, no one so far has been randomly extremely misogynist toward me either. I can mostly say completely uncontroversial things like “women fought for their right to vote in the early 1900s” without getting 30 bad faith and whataboutisms in my replies. It’s sooo nice.

As a man, I’m happy to know that about Lemmy.

Let me mansplain to you why it was actually the 1920s, and also something about sandwiches. PENIS POWER!
