For celebrity communities that I’ve created, I don’t mark them as NSFW. So maybe a filter for only show NSFW communities on the “All” page will be okay ? So, you don’t have to worry about that celebrities.

For some hardcore/explicit ones, such as /c/JerkOffToCelebs maybe or not the pictures/videos will be NSFW but the title/comments would be wild. So, every post should mark as NSFW. Same for the user that made the /c/WatchItForThePlot community, I believe

The thing about these celebrities’ fetishes, I’m not an expert but for me and people who have the same interest, sometimes it’s not necessary to see them sexy/naked/having sex to get the impression that is “Not Safe for Work”. But yeah, once again everything should be marked properly. If it’s 50/50, I will message the poster and discuss it even with the other user in that community

A community I made to about /c/politicians for Female Politicians’ content that gets you aroused or something like that. I can say 90%+ content on that community would be not explicit, but people who have the same interest would start saying something wild and fantasizing about them. So, in that matter, every post that contains it should mark as NSFW

Maybe you didn’t notice, but most of the time I’ve held myself to not posting because I know that if I post too much at a time, it will be very annoying. It’s a different case If this instance is very crowded with big posters that have potentially a lot of upvotes, then my posts wouldn’t have a lot of engagement.

I joined lemmy in early June/end of May. It was just like less than 100 instances, it’s hard to find instances that allowed these communities that I’ve made. I’m worried to make these kinda communities for instance that talk more about politics, technology, reddit, or something like that. Well, I know /kbin for a while but they are still a lot more to do to function the site well before I will contribute a lot there.

I’m just a guest here who wants to help contribute to this instance for people who have the same interest. I read the sitewide rules and always keep up with /c/lemmynsfw posts. I will respect this instance’s rules. If these types of communities are forbidden, you can restrict them or even delete them. I have no rights

For moderation, even with that many communities, I have moderated approximately posts (besides myself) about 20+ posts/day, and users’ reports are very helpful as well. So, right now, it won’t be a problem for me to handle that. But of course, as the communities continue to grow, I will invite a few users that have contributed a lot and have the understanding to moderate

If you want to block all my celebrity communities, just ask me. I will give you the list. Maybe we can discuss this with /c/NSFW411 mod for categorizing ? I’ve noticed they are already doing it. And probably a feature to block communities in bulk ?

I am so sorry for this. I didn’t intend to make this amount of trouble

I definitly think it makes more sense to allow communities, even if they dont make the most sense overall. I mean its not really harming anyone, and people can just block it if they dont want to see it (i think most people usually browse by subscribed anyway)

I’m finding that all the individual celebrity communities are getting a bit more annoying to sort through and block one by one especially when one is first made and someone uploads a handful of starter posts and they form poat clusters no matter what filter setting I’m using.

I wouldn’t say disallow celebrity posting but I also don’t think we need an individual community for every good looking celebrity either. Maybe consolidate it all into a few broader celebrity based communities with a more general themeing.

I’m not too bothered enough where I think it needs to not be on this instance and at best, I just mute it and carry on.

Hi, since I created !celebs@lemmynsfw.com, I have the feeling of being called into question :D

Let me share some points you may or may not have considered:

• It’s 100% true that some of the posts there are SFW, but honestly, I would not feel comfortable looking at the celebs’ posts flagged NSFW while being… well… at work; I saw a recent similar discussion about feet pics, same story, IMHO a picture doesn’t need nipples to be considered NSFW
• As pointed out by @Duck@lemmynsfw.com, my strict rule of Title=Celebrity is to facilitate filtering (this was my approach with Sync tbh). My intention was indeed to create a single space for all the celebs, letting everyone be able to easily filter his/her crush
• About the single-celeb dedicated communities, I see your point, clearly, they are in line with my tastes, but I do recognize the hassle of blocking them if it’s not your cup of tea. @Madness@lemmynsfw.com put a lot of effort into managing those comms, if the admins intend to remove this type of content, it would be nice to let him know sooner than later
• Generally speaking, I also like the all view instead of the subscribed, that’s why my list of blocked communities, at the moment, has 52 items
• Engagement; now I can’t tell exactly the rank because I blocked some of the popular comms, but /c/celebs should be in the top half of the first page of /communities, this means that there is a non-trivial number of people interested in the topic
• Visibility; being technically an SFW community (I removed the NSFW global flag after yay’s message), with some SFW posts, it pops in the feed of other instances helping the discovery of lemmynsfw.com and driving traffic here

Having said that, I don’t have a horse in this race, like many of you I was coming from Reddit where my NSFW account was filled with celebs-related subs (no kink shaming please xD) and I lurked the hell of it, here I tried to bootstrap a community that is what I would have already wanted to find.

Thanks for attending my TED talk! :D
