World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

They wiped out all the non professional porn awhile ago. 90% of it so was deleted over night. Everything is tied to an onlyfans or studio now
because the ‘actors’ could not be verified they were of appropriate age, or if they had consented to being in mass distributed pronography. it was a needed change, which is why i think putting restriction on the access to porn is a bad idea, because only the closest thing to reputable sites will honor the demand, leaving only the skuzziest of options available
I just miss user generated content. Not just a porn thing. I get what you're saying. But you're essentially what I hate about the internet. What you're saying means mass commercialization. Everywhere must be a seller and we are buyers. I prefer the internet when it was regular people creating things.
There are independent porn sites that still have user uploaded content like the good ole days.
Maybe like forums where you need to be a member. But even the smaller sites are all mostly owned by the same company. They all pull from the same source it's just different categories. The days of user created porn haven't been a thing for a while.
I see new stuff all the time on public sites. I suppose it depends on what you’re looking for.
None of the sites are corporate. None of them have paid memberships. It’s all ad based if anything.
What/where are these sites? Asking so that, you know, I can avoid going there ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I mean, it’s all dicks no pussy. You sure? Lol
Aaaand you've got my attention.
I don't like video tho, just pictures, so I followed Tumblr till it went down and then NewTumbl until it went down and now a third-gen clone that doesn't have anywhere near the niches but is getting better, and pretty soon it'll go down too.
Oh yeah RIP tumblr, I miss that lol. Remember when you could search for “[dirty thing] tumblr” haha
Ah, now that there's the rub
(pun intended)
Drumroll Ching!
I bet you don't notice it but they're mostly all tied to an onlyfans somewhere. It was an effort by the porn sites to remove them. Anything that wasn't verified is purged
Oh sure there are a good number of OF watermarks. I should be more clear, this isn’t women. Women don’t do get nude for free haha. This is dudes, and we all know dudes will have sex on camera for free.
They? Are you talking about pornhub? According to the article, this clearly wasn't pornhub.
Pornhubs parent company owns like 95% of all pornsites that host porn videos. When they scrubbed their content, everything trickled down. This video is in China. It's an entirely different system there.
What are you on about, Did you read the article mate?
These sites are paid for and you get links from telegram. This is in China. They haven't allowed unverified porn on the internet for awhile now.
That clarified absolutely nothing for me 😅
Yes it did. What needs further clarification. I told you what is in the article and what I'm on about. Be more detailed next time
