Lemmy has a different ides of what counts as food porn.

Yeah this'd be like TastyFood in the old place. But I always thought FoodPorn was too unrealistic. Like, every bun had to have that glossy brown sheen or it was crap, etc.

I think that's more a reflection on amount of content producers than anything else.

I don't mean any disrespect to OP because that looks good and I can't cook for shit, but I agree with you that this isn't the sort of content I would expect.

And seriously having literally no idea what foodporn meant before.. I saw the name of the community and seeing porn as part of the name I definitely didn't think it meant high end food dishes 😂

Question... This is from someone who didn't surf Reddit at all, never saw foodporn on reddit. I only used to frequent 2 subs regarding apps I use. From the comments on here it seems foodporn was like high end, artistic professional chef type productions on Reddit. When I first came to this community on Lemmy all I saw in the About sidebar was "Your favorite food in the world!", that's it. No mention of some special presentation, or that it had to be profesional chef style dishes, and that paper plates, fast-food , takeout etc didn't qualify. Is this community supposed to be a recreation of uppity foodporn sub from Reddit? If so wouldn't that be explained in the sidebar? I was taken back by many of the judgemental type comments here, not only about my posts but also towards other people's.

I think your post was mostly well received. I wouldn't worry about it man. Hope you didn't take my comment the wrong way. I don't think lemmy should be/doesn't need to be a reddit clone. Communities will figure themselves out.

OK thanks... Your post was fine, you seemed reasonable that's why I asked... Appreciate it

This is like real porn vs. AI porn.
