Ok, let me know when you submit the PR to Lemmy’s GitHub to enable that

This is a photo hosting site, that you don’t even need to stop using yourself. If you’d like to view motherless, you can. Hell, if you find something that’s not CP you could upload it on another site if you really wanted.

This is such a weird hill to die on. You’re defending a site known to have CP, that’s very weird.

Reddit and 4chan banned motherless years ago. Like before one of the cofounders sadly offed himself. Your argument is reddit and 4chan hosted questionable material and they banned the site. Wouldn’t that mean, by your logic, that we would also want to ban it because if we’re supposed to be better than them, then we would want to ban something they deemed as worse than them.

Also, if there was a direct link to someone’s social media with personal identifying information that was not consensual it would get removed. So yes Facebook and places are not 100% in the clear either. Even so motherless is unique because it’s still very unmoderated in comparison to the others.

None of this is going to change my stance on this. This doesn’t effect the functionality of the site, this doesn’t make it harder to post, and it’s inherently a less safe site than many others. We have to make sure our site is not taken down.

1. 4chan and reddit would not ban the site on baseless allegations
2. It’s explicitly listed in the Office of Justice’s docs about sites known to be used to distribute csam.

It’s the only “smaller site” that is outright listed. From what I understand it was a much bigger issue on the site in the early internet days but I’m not taking any chances.

They are also notorious for hosting revenge porn, which we also do not allow.

I personally have only seen and reported it once by accidentally stumbling on it and that wasn’t motherless. I definitely don’t think it’s necessarily a common thing, but we’re also not trying to take any unnecessary risks when it comes to CSAM

great question, probably should have covered that lol, just report it, probably best to say “post spam” or something similar in the report

Put it this way, if you were one of the people I was mentioning in the post you would have probably received a short ban by now lol

I think there’s merit to cross-posting, and until I see an egregious misuse of it I don’t want to police users too much, I put this rule into place because I did see a ridiculous amount of posts in single communities. I’ll talk with the other admins and see what their opinion is though.

Yes this is the exact situation lol, multiple people did it

You’re also fine because your posts are to different communities and are often varied, you’re actually a good example of posting a lot without it being spam IMO

I appreciate that, yours isn’t actually that bad, there was someone who posted literally 40+ images in 40+ posts in the same community. Not only that but there were photos of the same image set split across several different posts

No worries, I’m happy to help

Thanks for brining that to my attention. I added a slut filter, clearly it wasn’t working correctly

In the future you can just message me directly
