I agree, but I also think that porn should still be welcome here. The issue is there needs to be better control over it entering the feeds, not that the communities themselves should be abolished.

I think the above commenter is referring to stuff like EarthPorn or FoodPorn or UnixPorn

Oh duh I always hated the names of those subs. The only thing worse are subs like InterestingAsFuck and NextFuckingLevel which always gave the same vibes as a Watchmojo video.

Oh, that's because those subreddits were literally astroturfed and the mods were shills making money off of the products being shown off.

I've tried a couple apps and it looks like they're trying to at the very least not have uncensored porn on your all feed. So that's a step up.

On Lemmy? I block multiple porn subs a week that are popping up on my feed. It feels relentless to me.
