No, I’m not talking about meta discussions like the ones in this community. I think the value and necessity of those posts is pretty apparent.

I’ve been noticing something this morning while browsing All on the instance: i am seeing are a lot of SFW celebrity posts occurring on the sever, along with a number of communities dedicated to an individual celebrity.

For example, I just saw a post to a Gillian Anderson community with a “headshot” type pic of her in a what I would call a regular dress.

What does the general community think of this type of content being posted to lemmynsfw?

My first feeling is “eh, whatever, live and let live. If you don’t like it, block the community/poster so you don’t see it.” But at the same time, I just blocked several communities and I’m still seeing more… it just seems weird to post a bunch of SFW content to an NSFW dedicated instance.

As an aside, I realize I can just browse Subscribed, but I like browsing All to discover new communities.

    I feel like this should be polled. Because, as you said, it is more of an annoyance than an actual issue. It is probably something as a community we would need to decide on.

    Personally, I am here to mainly browse All/New so I’m just going to be blocking them regardless of where they are posting.

    I have most of them all blocked now, but is was a little tedious logging on and seeing several new specific celebrity communities made each day with posts of just regular fully clothed people in my Local/New tab. It prolly wouldn’t be as annoying if there was just one community titled “celebs” with posts about all the random celebrities (easier to block). But man… someone is putting in the work to make an individual community for every single celebrity in existance.

    While the celebrity posts could be fetish thing, we should probably address questions like: Would it be acceptable if someone started a community here posting about farming or tractor repair? (Non-sexual)
