Let’s be honest. At least half of folks from reddit liked them some nsfw content (including me!) mixed with their news,politics,memes,etc from one server where they could subscribe to all. So far I haven’t found any other instances that host nsfw content other than lemmynsfw.com. It doesn’t seem like that jives with the philosophy of lemmy/fediverse? Why don’t more instances host nsfw content?

EDIT: Obviously I’m new to all this so if I’ve misunderstood something I apologize. Just trying to figure all this out.

    There are three or four other instances that allow nsfw content, but it’s forbidden for most instances because NSFW content is a massive pain in the ass to moderate. Depending what country you’re in you probably have a lot of regulations you need to follow, including in the US where you need to comply with safe harbor regulations so you don’t get in trouble when some asshole uploads a bunch of underage stuff to your server.

    Even outside the legal stuff, you’re going to have to deal with a lot of weirdos and negotiate and regulate other people’s sexual fetishes to a significant degree. Most people just don’t want to deal with that, and I can’t blame them.
