A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Please don't post about US Politics.
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

I think the risk of getting certain unwanted content posted on it. Though, I'm not sure how it all works with the content that's posted and the owner of the instance. Though there are certainly NSFW communities (I, personally, just blocked them because that's not my jam).
"I'm sure it exists, I just blocked it because I personally don't like it" - everyone on lemmy
Communities outside of tech and politics are very very small and slow. Especially anything NSFW. There's a lot of prudish and ace people in the current crop of lemmy users.
Lets agree to disagree? Because you cannot generalize the entirety of Lemmy about this topic. Lemmy certainly has NSFW content which means it is not everyone that blocks it. Not only that, there's a phrase that goes like; ''be the change'' or something like that. If you want NSFW content to flourish, then start a community like that and post it. Perhaps people might join the community and post too.
I genuinely don’t understand it. If you want sexual content and it’s not on Lemmy, there are other specific sites for that, right? Like I mentioned before, Lemmy itself is already a tech-based platform which means tech-savvy people will be more on Lemmy and that means lots of tech-talk. Politics will be big on every platform because that's just a important topic in life. Life basically evolved around politics.
Not wanting to see sexual content does not directly mean someone is prudish, it just literally means they don't want to see that kind of content now. Therefore people block it. It's not that deep (no pun intended).
For example for me, when I'm on Lemmy I want to see; Tech, Piracy, some politics, bit of anime debate (non-sexual) and some jokes. Nothing else. If I want anything else, there are other places to visit.
