Is it better to find a niche or to create a community of sorts and how do both work exactly, so i created my account not to long ago and most places feel dead in a way but if i created my own place its not like i would get many people and i have some ideas but there kinda dumb or “Spicey” to say or somehting like that. im not even sure if i have the motivation to create and manage a community.

        That might be a difficult one to start, as a lot of Lemmy servers don’t allow NSFW content. Best of luck. :)

        I’d say don’t be afraid to give it a shot, but be realistic with your view of its effect on you. If it helps, great! If not, don’t be afraid of abandoning it or handing it off. Gotta do what’s best for you in the end.

        Moderating NSFW content compounds the usual issues you need to deal with. I would sit back and see how the fediverse adapts to itself, and then it’ll be more obvious what the right move is. I think there will be a disjoint NSFW-verse for instance, but we’ll see. It could be a several weeks or even months before things get established though.

          We need more moderation tooling at every level, it should be easy to present a sfw default presences, let users search and pick NSFW then have it just for them on thier subs and all.
