Comment on Will Lemmy instances be forced to verify users' ~~ages~~ identities?
TranquilTurbulence@lemmy.zip 2 days agoI’ve only heard about UK Australia and certain states in America. If you live in Kazakhstan next to Borat, you should be fine.
As always, EU is complicated, so we’ll have to wait and see how that works out.

Twitter / X started asking for age verification for NSFW content when browsed from EU.

So, if you can’t even use Xitter for porn is there anything left? What even is the propose of that site any more?

It’s still the biggest art posting platform. And I’m not even sure where art posters should migrate to… I mean sure it would be nice to have them scattered through different fediverse instances, but it would be nice for us, not for them. The main thing they get from X is massive algorithmic reach. You hit like on a Miku art and another artist with their Miku art immediately slips into your feed, you like it even more and you decide to check their profile and you like their other works and you subscribe. This kind of easy and efficient advertisement is something that doesn’t exist anywhere else outside of few centralized systems.

Why don’t art posters use y’know something dedicated to art or images and not microblogging?
Like DeviantArt or Tumblr, the two once popular with artists sites designed for them.

Should Lemmy heavily incorporate hashtags, then? Hmm…

I don’t understand why anyone would ever use Twitter for porn in the first place lol. Porn sites exist……
I’ve been on Twitter for like 16 years now and porn has never been something I’ve seen or even thought to search for on there. It makes no sense.

Oh trust me, stuff you didn’t even imagine could exist can be found in that wretched hive of depravity and fornication. If you never click any of that, the algorithm won’t know how dirty your mind is. On the other hand, you could also do the exact opposite and click on everything horny. That will turn your whole feed into a 100% NSFW experience. Let’s just say that it’s a surprisingly versatile site.
