It also doesn't allow NSFW which other instances are littered with.

lemm.ee itself also doesn't allow porn but that's a "don't post it with your lemm.ee account" type of rule. I think it also gets filtered out of the all feed, but you can definitely subscribe to stuff over on lemmynsfw.com. Long story short porn is a bugger to mod and the legal situation when hosting (and uploading an image with a lemm.ee account would imply that) is never trivial, either.

Somewhat relatedly, image upload limits are also rather strict, 100kb, to avoid that becoming a resource hog.

That's reasonable! Although AFAIK lemmynsfw is one of the most defederated instances ever, so there's a lot of options.

It actually censors curse words too. I've actually come to like it though

[–] donut4ever@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

I think that's going a bit too far, but also understandable.

[–] lud@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What? I have never seen any censored words on lemm.ee

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh, it only censors them when displayed to its own users

Lud is a lemm.ee user. Did you mean lemmy.ml?
