I haven’t posted in a week since Lemmynsfw went down and I feel like I need to keep the spirit alive somewhere.

I’m not on piefed yet but that would be acceptable too.

    If you’re otherwise tech savvy, the legal ramifications (and preventing them) are probably the biggest headache. It depends on where you are, but where I’m at, the owner of the server is responsible for everything on it.

    There likely are tools which scan for naughty stuff and remove it, but I don’t know the specifics.

      Right, I was afraid of that. Also, while maybe it’s the only feasible option for a hobby/volunteer project, automoderation has often ruined the fun of some subs over at Reddit when I was still using it.

        It’s in a different category than an automod bot IMO. It would basically be looking for the worst-of-the-worst highly illegal “you know it when you see it” type content and making sure it never reaches your storage or the instance. There would of course be false positives and things that slip though, which would have to be reported and dealt with an a case by case basis.

          Thanks for the input! :) I’m starting to really appreciate (more than otherwise) those that do contribute with hardware and instance hosting.
