If NSFW people start to move away, then Reddit is done for.
Malicious Compliance
People conforming to the letter, but not the spirit, of a request. For now, this includes text posts, images, videos and links. Please ensure that the “malicious compliance” aspect is apparent - if you’re making a text post, be sure to explain this part; if it’s an image/video/link, use the “Body” field to elaborate.
======
-
We ENCOURAGE posts about events that happened to you, or someone you know.
-
We ACCEPT (for now) reposts of good malicious compliance stories (from other platforms) which did not happen to you or someone you knew. Please use a [REPOST] tag in such situations.
-
We DO NOT ALLOW fiction, or posts that break site-wide rules.

Also check out the following communities:
!fakehistoryporn@lemmy.world !unethicallifeprotips@lemmy.world
I ended up making my own nsfw comm (!animemidriff@lemmynsfw.com) that was missing in Lemmy... with blackjack and hookers!
I hope people make the other ones I miss, or I might have to do it myself
You're doing gods work bless ya
porn was the backbone of many a community.
Forever was. Forever shall be.
Praise be to porn.
indeed!
This is all a reminder that Reddit was never anything special - the people on it were. The trending of malicious compliance by moderators to an abusive CEO really highlights how exceptional people can be. This whole following corrupt rules thing in a way that just lets the corruption burn itself out is fucking beautiful.
...it's like a captain going down with the ship, while cracking Chuck Norris jokes all the way to the grave. This is what the internet was made for.
Steve really is something. Imagine thinking you can pick a fight with the internet and win. That is perhaps the most delusional thought any person can ever have.
Such a glorious spectacle, the fall of a once mighty internet giant.
I don't think it'll happen on July 1st, but it'll probably happen in a few years. It will be more of a slow decline.
I imagine there will be an influx at the end of the month when people's favourite apps cease to be. Following that I hope for a slow steady growth.
