Let’s be honest. At least half of folks from reddit liked them some nsfw content (including me!) mixed with their news,politics,memes,etc from one server where they could subscribe to all. So far I haven’t found any other instances that host nsfw content other than lemmynsfw.com. It doesn’t seem like that jives with the philosophy of lemmy/fediverse? Why don’t more instances host nsfw content?
EDIT: Obviously I’m new to all this so if I’ve misunderstood something I apologize. Just trying to figure all this out.

This is the way!

Yeah! I always assumed that’s what everyone’s doing
There are three or four other instances that allow nsfw content, but it’s forbidden for most instances because NSFW content is a massive pain in the ass to moderate. Depending what country you’re in you probably have a lot of regulations you need to follow, including in the US where you need to comply with safe harbor regulations so you don’t get in trouble when some asshole uploads a bunch of underage stuff to your server.
Even outside the legal stuff, you’re going to have to deal with a lot of weirdos and negotiate and regulate other people’s sexual fetishes to a significant degree. Most people just don’t want to deal with that, and I can’t blame them.
as long as other instances haven’t blocked federation with this instance you’ll still be able to access it.
you will however need to find the communities first and subscribe to them to have them show up in your feed, as nsfw communities don’t show up on other instances by default as far as i know.[email protected] is intended as a band-aid for this, but you can also visit this instance and find communities here directly and then sub from another instance.

the workflow currently tends to include first searching for the community by url or by !community@instance and then visiting the community url on your instance by putting for example yourinstance/c/[email protected] in your address bar.
this instance also has a custom set of patches applied to make nsfw stuff more accessible to users, including those who aren’t logged in.
There’s a lot of talk about other instances defederating from here now that the whole thing with being ambiguous about child porn came up.
The damage was done with the original post. And the update still hasn’t given a good stance either. So, who knows if this place will even be around long.

Yep. I don’t really care if anywhere defederates from here. I’m only subscribed to communities from one other server so far, and I’m not exactly browsing beehaw from this account lmao
And run the risk of seeing any type of child porn? No thanks.
I obv have an account here. But without a real stance against it, if be concerned about the longevity of the instance.
The admins have made it crystal clear that no CP and no loli. Read the top pinned post.
They still allow ambiguity on underage, even with the update. It’s too flimsy and is written in an attempt to not offend the crazy number of pedo apologists and people who want pedo adjacent material.
They literally say, in all caps, that loli/shota and cp are BANNED. What else do you want? Signed in blood?
Then explain why there is still cp here, even after multiple reports?
I want it enforced and no possible grey areas. But people aren’t willing to actually take a stand and say, fuck it, if it’s questionable at all, it’s banned.
I anticipate a different nsfw server will spin up
