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.
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.

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

Interesting, I didn’t know that. Where do I find the record of actions?
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.
