No porn? Why?
.ca allows porn. You actually have to click "show NSFW" during sign up if you want to see it, so it's not on by default, and it's very easy to turn on/off if you want it.
I find that the instances that ban porn also ban a lot of other stuff that isn't bad. Feels like I'm in church and everything is being censored.
Surely keeping the csam out means someone on every nsfw instance needs to look at a whooole lotta porn, including sick stuff they really really don't want to see. For no pay. I can't see a way for that to last long so either an instance bans porn or stops moderating and gets defederated.
Sure, but isn't that something all of the instances will have to deal with, whether they allow nsfw content or not, I bet people will try to post it. And the trolls/sabouteurs will go for the sick shit.
Yeah, true, although it'll be a lot worse for the mods on nsfw instances where they need to make a judgement call about what crossed which line or not. That's 10x more difficult than just deleting everything that gets reported enough times.
I could see a better chance with one of the experienced porn Admins from Reddit, they have years of experience and are probably used to even worse shit!
Depending on your hosting provider TOS you may not be able to host porn without risking your instance.
NSFW and Porn are not the same thing.

Square rectangle sort of thing, no?
All porn is NSFW. But not all NSFW stuff is porn.
Yeah, it’s a terrible term that needs to be done away with.
Exactly my point. Thank you.
