Trying to create a healthy NSFW[1] community on Lemmy:

  • Legal/authorized in western[2] jurisdictions.
  • No spam/onlyfans
  • Quality content/HD
  • with sauce/context as often as possible

[1] We’re talking about porn. not gore.
[2] This basically means the American and European democracies.

  • As I said in another comment, the GDPR protects people. And the GDPR only applies to personnaly identifiable data (IPs, email addresses, street address, legal name, date of birh…) Lemmy only collect emails and IPs, and do not share them between instances. So it’s very easy to comply to the GDPR as long as you don’t do anything shady.

    The EU has a marketing issue. They tried to pass legislation to prevent companies to collect data. But instead, company displayed a popup, kept collecting data, and blamed it on the EU. Everytime I see a popup, I blame ruthless data collection.

    Actually, Lemmy is most likely violatiing the California Consumer Privacy Act, which, as opposed to the GPDR, gives the right to update/delete any data generated by the user, not only personally identifiable information.


  • The GDPR doesn’t apply only to services hosted in the EU, but any services handling the data of an EU citizen.

    This is why some news outlets in the US just decided to block EU users all together, out of laziness.

    IANAL, but the GDPR doesn’t cover pseudonymous data. Actually the GDPR encourages data processors (= services) to use pseudomization.

    Personally identifiable information are IPs, email addresses, street address, name, date of birth, … Lemmy only collect IPs and email addresses. And these are not shared between instances.

    Whether the service is hosted in the EU or not, as long as it serves EU users, lemmy should provide a way to delete emails and ip information in a self serving way. (maybe by deleting the account) In the mean time, instances admins have to fulfil requests to delete emails/ips of EU citizens from the database.






  • I’m trying to create a healthy porn community on lemmy. And the hostility of lemmy towards it is worrisome in my opinion. People are calling for de-federating lemmynsfw, people file false reports on my NSFW-only communities, the majority of instances ban porn,…

    IMHO, there should be only two tags “NSFW”, “NSFL”. (= Not Safe For Life, meaning gore) There was this running-joke on reddit last year “when I was younger ‘NSFW’ on /r/all meant boobs, now it’s most likely a video of a bomb being dropped from a drone blowing up russian soldiers.

    I don’t think we should rate the degree of NSFW or NSFL. Where is the line? I assume a topless lady is NSFW, not porn. But is a fully nude woman or man NSFW, or porn? If it’s still “just” NSFW, what about two fully naked men holding each other penises? Or a woman on her knees looking at a penis without touching it, with her mouse open? This is a very fine line.

    I’m in favour of most european broadcasting laws: visible nipples are fine as long as they’re not sexuality, but “16” or “18” rating is recommended. Visible anus, vulva or penis makes “18/Unrated” mandatory, whether there is intercourse or not.

    I would translate this to lemmy to “anything with nipples, anus, vulva or penis visible is NSFW, regardless of intercourse” No grading of “NSFW” or “porn.”
