I’m sure the audience will find it anyway without spamming the entire Fediverse with your porn preferences. Announce it on your nsfw instance and it will be sufficient.

Edit; oh boy, the gooners sure are taking this personally. Chill nobody is taking your porn away but also nobody cares about your little porn kingdom.

Edit 2; it seems that there has been a cleanup and the admin at that porn instance is working on it too.

Final edit: Now I know what hell it must be like to be a teacher with an unruly crowd of horny teenagers that can’t think beyond their genitals. Oh, well.

      I understand the teenage boys that are running on 102% hormones but for the adults I believe the porn brain rot is real.

      As opposed to random capitalization and porn brain rot that is really edgy and cool and indicates socially well adjusted people.

    An upside of the porn spam is that it linked me to what new instance to block before it became an issue. I don’t like blurring nsfw by default for artistic nudity or non-porn nsfw content, but I also don’t like my global feed to be half porn, so I find blocking the instance to be a good enough solution.

    I’m fine with it — and I think that it improves searchability to have one per community, rather than some bulk post – but the posts need to be marked NSFW, and some of the announcement posts are not, which means that people who have NSFW stuff blocked are still getting them. I think that that’s the real problem.

    My understanding is that this is something of an exceptional situation, as apparently lemmynsfw.com — the biggest NSFW community host on the Threadiverse — went down and the admin was supposed to be away for some months, so it’s not coming back up in at least the near future, and so it sounds like people are setting up alternatives on other instances.

      I think it is too reductive that NSFW means porn. It could be nudity in arts or otherwise graphic topics or imagery that you don’t want to engage with in every situation. I follow several arts communities that frequently have NSFW post without them being pornographic or even sexual but flagged because some people browse social media where such still would be frowned upon. I think the Fediverse would benefit from having multiple flags for porn, nudity, gore, common triggers and so on instead of just one

    If I interpret this comment and this comment correctly, this may be a feature of PieFed that automatically (or with a checkbox?) announces new communities to this one, so the people who are doing this might not be completely aware that this is what they are doing and might end up not reading this post.

    …why are they any different than any other community you don’t care about? There aren’t pictures included in the announcements, and you can easily scroll past the post.

      Because for normal people there is a subtle difference scrolling past single announcements for communities about gardening and games vs gaping assholes and huge dicks and especially when you get tens of the latter in sequence.

      Not everybody is a porn brain gooner.

          Dude, everybody knows and nobody cares. The problem here isn’t that porn exists but that it is an annoyance with spam with explicit terminology. Can you let go of your dick and scratch your head long enough to figure that one out?

          Here is counter example for you. What about, in the middle of your special times session, a barrage of political discussion, news reports, Gaza footage, imagery of children starving, oceans dying because of pollution, and just when you are about to shoot your special milk, your porn content is replaced with grandmas playing Christmas plays.

          I’d imagine this be a slight annoyance of yours, though manageable. Would it mean that you deny any of mentioned above to exist or that they scare you? Or would you think that everything has it’s time and place and this is your porn place where those do not belong?

                What am I supposed to get? That the reddit feed that I created by subscribing to shit was exactly what you described, and I could fix it at any time if I wanted, much like you can here? I didn’t even state an opinion about your bitching. Though, now I will after reading all your comments being a condescending fuckhead. It’s stupid. The sub is for posting new communities, it doesn’t stipulate they be SFW. In fact it says that if the content is not rule breaking and you don’t like it you should just not engage. Not create an entirely separate post to complain. Go touch grass.

      Dear diary. Today I was utterly destroyed by a horny teenager with a clever and super original copy pasta they had gotten from some of the thousand of times it had been posted before, though each and every time then with some effort to be funny. I spent much many time worrying how much emotional distress I had caused this poor darling by suggesting that porn doesn’t have to be everywhere and all the time. I can only hope they can resume their daily wank routine and recover.

    I was slightly critical of this post and tone, buuuut after checking all the recent posts…it is quite excessive.

    I think the general post about the new instance is perfect, and maybe including a link to a nsfw specific ‘new communities’ sub that’s part of the new instance.

      It seems the mods have done some cleaning and that the sysop at that porn instance is aware and working on it too.

      In the comments here I’m amusing myself in banter with what I hope are teenage boys rushed by their hormones but I fear are middle aged men whipped by their demons.
