Like most other people here, I originally came here from reddit. Ive been having a blast so far, and I much prefer the forum-style of this. After about a week of using Lemmy I realized there was something intrinsic to reddit that Lemmy doesnt have. And I wont miss it. Too many people on reddit were way too horny. I was really annoying, but Lemmy seems way more chill. Plus its refreshing knowing that the people on here arent all bots.
Honestly, I agree entirely. I was a lurker for the most part, and it was so tiring wading through the random horny posting throughout Reddit. There was a subreddit I followed that was specifically the same as another well-known subreddit, but had an additional rule that no mentions of sex were allowed. Even the various subs satirizing other popular subs (like ShitpostXIV, which focused on Final Fantasy XIV) eventually became half cropped porn. It gets tiring, and I was actually relieved to see the lack of NSFW topics here.
I loved r/TrueSTL and r/196, but after it devolved into half cropped porn and hornyposting about femboys it just wasnt funny anymore. And not judging preference or anything btw it was just too much. And those two subs are just the ones that pop into my head there were way more, like Wordington.
That’s exactly what I mean (/r/196 is the one I meant, with /r/19684 being the non-horny version). I’m bi, so I have no issues with the queer community at all - the issue is strictly how hard it was to not get constantly bombarded with horny garbage. Same reason it’s so hard for me to find anime and manga that I can enjoy. Fanservice in those is absolutely out of control.
