Hi, reddit refugee here. I saw the rule in the main post stating that this instance will not allow NSFW content for now due to the legal ramifications & moderating needs. I 100% understand and agree with that decision, however, does this mean that I (as a user registered to sh.itjust.works) cannot subscribe to, read, or post in NSFW communities on other instances? Posts belong to a single community and communities belong to a single lemmy instance, correct? If my assumption here is correct, there’s no risk to sh.itjust.works from interacting with these external communities, so long as we dont try to host a new one here, right?

    I am no lawyer, however I do not see a problem with subscribing to NSFW communities outside of this instance. I’d go as far as saying that should you want to contribute to these external communities you can do so as long as you are not using the built in image hosting service to store your content. There are external platforms such as redgifs that could be used to store this content as long as it fit within their TOS.
