I know Lemmy is about to take off because the porn is quickly moving from drawn henti and furry images to gonewild onlyfan contributors. I call it the QOTP Index (Quality Of The Porn). Reddit is done.
It's pretty easy. Just don't go to lemmynsfw.com. hopefully, we'll get a way to subscribe to block all communities on another instance with a single click at some point to make this easier.
I partially get the reason for hiding NSFW content behind a sign up but at the same because it's not stated anywhere, for a newcomer it looks like the instance may just be without content.
That must be a weird glitch everywhere right now. I can search for something but not find it, though I know it exists, but as soon as I post the link, then click the link twice (i.e. click the link, go back and click it again), the community shows up. Has happened twice for me. Is search just broken/ not working?
