      I’m wondering if you can give me some insight into this strange phenomenon: on Reddit, whenever I used to post NSFW pics, I used to get a lot of upvotes but for some reason such pics don’t get many upvotes on Lemmy. Why don’t Lemmy users upvote NSFW pics? Do they not like them?

        I have no idea. Americans with their weird puritanical foundation maybe? I think overall people here are nicer and more thoughtful than the overall feel from when I was on reddit (which has been quite a while to be honest). Maybe just such a lower number of users.

          Also, people on Lemmy seem to be older than users on Reddit so maybe that’s why they might not like nsfw content

            Not that I expect that it’s a fundamental reason for any behaviour discrepancy, but Reddit and Lemmy are different in that all Lemmy actions, including what you upvote, is publicly available information.

                I’m not aware of a trivial way to do it, but as far as I understand it, any instance operator that’s federated w/ the content would have the data.
