Honest take: We’re trying to keep it going on fedinsfw, but it’s rough. We lost a ton of the OC posters that were also active users on lemmy when lemmyNSFW died, and now it’s dwindled to just four or five of us over there popping up like pool floaties in a little swimming pool OF agency accounts. The audience community has barely recovered as well; engagement is a fraction of what it was (and borderline overtly hostile to male/trans content) and that makes it really rough to get new people in, let alone build a culture that keeps those new people around to post.
Might be a little harsh, but the bottom line is if people want more topical content ya’ll gotta help put in the work to keep it fun for the people making the OC.
