Mod Coordination

The amount of kink shaming in this thread is disappointing.

One of my kinks is young, beautiful, ladies. None of these ladies would ever want to have anything to do with me. The are a fantasy. At the same time I have no interest in anyone underaged. I go to great extents to make sure what I post is legal. There are a number of studios from Brazil, Columbia, Japan, Vietnam, and China that I would love to post from, but they don't legally or structurally provide 18 USC 2257 confirmation.

When it comes to OC content, the most important aspect of any model to me is her face/eyes. It is what I look at first in any photo. This by itself eliminates a large portion of OC content for me. Further as a professional photographer, the light, composition, and concept of the photo are important. These aspects are often missing or poorly understood in OC content. Thats ok. For those that like OC content, I am glad it is here for you.

As to the original question, A for now.

On to the problems.

I tend to post large images. I stay under what are the poorly documented limits. Often in posting an image it will fail with an error message that makes no sense. (SyntaxError: Unexpected token 'R', "Request er"... is not valid JSON) Many times, simply reposting the same image works. On other images, which have a smaller height and width (in pixels), and take up less storage (in MB) than what I have found as practical maximums, they just will not post. (Yes, I have posted this as an issue on the lemmy-ui GitHub.)

Lemmy in general, and LemmyNSFW in specific are much harder than reddit or other historical platforms to explore, and find the material you enjoy. Part of this is most posters are only posting in one or a very few communities. On reddit, I would find someone who was posting stuff I liked, I would click on their profile and use that to find other subreddits I would like. Additionally many subreddits, would have a list of "our friends" in the side bar, which is very rare here.

Staying on exploration, the search tools in the default web UI (simply navigating to https://lemmynsfw.com/ in a browser) are lacking. The only way to improve this is to make suggestions / get invoked with the development of the code. There are also, that I am aware of no communities like r/NSFW411/ or r/wowthissubexists/ (specifically the Fap Friday Thread) to help with finding new stuff.

As to the front page, whether you sort by active or hot what you tend to see is stuff that was recently posted. As there are a few posters, bots or not, that tend to post 15+ posts at a given time, those are what dominate the front page. If it is stuff you like, great, if not... Since this is generated automatically by Lemmy, you either need to come up with and code a new algorithm, throttle posting, or get more active posters.

As a final note, to the admins of LemmyNSFW and all the mods and posters who contribute. Thank You very much.
