Be it Lemmy, Mastodon, or some other instance on some other service.
There is a write up somewhere about this but I can’t find it right now…
There is a mastodon instance that bans the letter “e” https://oulipo.social/ it’s basically a writing exercise and challenge.
In response, https://dolphin.town/ is born. Where you can only use the letter “e”, even usernames.
Edit: found the write up! It even contains a brief interaction between users from both instances! https://interconnected.org/home/2022/07/12/folktale
A very right-wing Mastadon server when I first started searching for anyone else on Mastadon in my state (US South East). Scary, scary place.
Ah, /c/Florida on exploding-heads? Me too. Fuck em
burggit.moe, nsfw instance. Went there because some of the stuff I’m into had been banned from lemmynsfw, but…yikes. They go a little too extreme into some areas for me aye.
Jfc what are you into that’s banned on the official nsfw?? lol
Not gonna lie I kinda take a peek at that instance…
…I reserve the right to remain silent lol
the official nsfw??
lemmynsfw.com is NOT the official in any way. It’s got questionable content that got them defederated with lemmy.ml , which is run by the devs that coded Lemmy.
So, uhh, what is the official one? Just asking for research purposes…
In the fediverse, there is no official anything. Besides lemmynsfw.com, the only other one I know of is pornlemmy.com.
Agree, and they’ve allegedly banned some of their most extreme communities.
It’s now the officially only instance mine has defederated from. Disgusting creeps.
Since a lot of these replies veer into the not safe for life, gross, or sexual, I think I’m just gonna mention the mundanely “weird” few Hubzilla or Misskey instances I’ve stumbled around. It’s less to do with their content and more with the different structure compared to some of the more common website styles you see outside of social media as well as distinct from much social media.
Like Hubzilla almost seems like a techie’s idea of social media right down to the menus listing system apps and users’ having file directories for, well, presumably sharing files? I’ve yet to find a Hubzilla instance with some more active use to see how it would all really pan out, but I have found at least one with some nicer looking css to it.
I think one of my favorite parts of looking through Hubzilla instances is that you can see this interesting potential for it as a cross between MySpace and like some power users’ space for hosting odd web apps and files.
As to Misskey, well, many of the instances I’ve seen just have this really lighthearted vibe to them thanks to the design using a lot of round edges and…Something else with the visuals gives a lot of the instances a softer feel. Some of it’s absolutely the custom emojis, but there’s just a lot of weird playfulness to the way it’s styled, something I don’t think I’ve really seen much in many social spaces online (which is kinda interesting now that I think of it).
I turned off NSFW entirely after wondering what the most recent nsfw community in my feed was. I saw one ‘sissyboy chastity’ …yea time to turn off nsfw.
Uh oh. Those NSFW communities are working fast lol
I’m blocking each and every one of them, and just wait for the day when any app comes with a filter by instance instead of by community. I don’t get the appeal with porn on social media when there are free websites entirely dedicated to it, in better quality, and with more frequent updates.
Because it’s NOT better quality, it’s all spray tanned caked on makeup fake moan noise factory produced bullshit. Or it’s onlyfans.
Forums and the like are the only place to find actual amateur content that people are posting because they enjoy it rather than as a job.
Uhh you seem like you haven’t actually looked. There’s all sorts of amateur stuff on Pornhub and my personal favorite, Spankbang. I’ve got some pretty niche interests, too.
That’s not amateur. That’s “amateur”.
Seriously, I’m so sick of all the porn communities showing up in my feed. I block them and more keep popping up on my feed. It’s like a game of whac a mole, I don’t want to see your butt hole Lisa.
But maybe Lisa has a nice butthole she wanted to share.
On a more serious note, I too dislike porn randomly popping up when I don’t expect it.
This thread right here, full of people discovering people different from them put things on the Internet and some of them are weird or gross
Hi you called
I’ve ran into some furry stuff on Mastodon while browsing the federated timeline.
Nothing that an update to my filters and an eye scrubbing didn’t solve.
…with steel wool. (Actually there are much worse things to unsee)
Furries hold up the tech industry and open source community, it’s just how it is 🤷♀️
Haven’t actually seen a lot of weird stuff yet, let’s bring on the weird stuff
The Fediverse: either leave now or stay and get weird! lol
I can’t find it now(found it, check comment below), but when I first learned about peertube, i found my way to this strange, almost otherworldly video. Everything was blurry and dark, and the sounds of tearing fabric were ever-present. I have no idea what it could have been, but it had this distinct feeling like I shouldn’t have been watching it. I think about it every now and again.Update, through some hardcore scouring, I did find it. You can watch it here. A friend I was talking to said it might been an AI-generated thing, which would make sense, but I’m not certain. Checking the profile, they’ve only uploaded this one video, and they seem to have a bandcamp with no real information about themselves or why they’ve made this, but they’ve got a few other audio-only tracks that are kind of similar, only much shorter.
Maybe it was a blurry video of someone (gasp) tearing fabric.
That would make sense, and that’s kind of what I have to think of it as, maybe as an ASMR thing? But it was a rather long video, and what I could see (not much) didn’t seem to be focused on anything that could be described as fabric, like the noise was coming from off-screen.
It’s just a matter of time til Dragons Fucking Cars comes around.
I haven’t looked around. I don’t want to run into another Space Dicks, 50-50 or Watch People Die.
I thought space dicks was pretty funny until it went full on Nazi dog whistle sub.
When I first found it, it was just memes using porn. I never saw any mutilation on there like I’m seeing some people saying. O.o
It eventually became a racist cesspool though, which is what got it banned.
I miss watchpeopledie, it was humbling.
I miss FatPeopleHate.
Maybe I remember that sub through rose tinted glasses but i dont remember it hating people for being fat. The negative traits being hated on were things that fit a stereotype that happens to exist among people who are more likely to be fat.
Its probably good it doesn’t exist anymore, there were some really well written stories though, it was like the bad roommates sub.
