Centralization is likely the unintended end result of the internet. Consider a mesh network where all the links have even throughput. Now suddenly one node has some content that goes viral. Everyone wants to access that data. Suddenly that node needs to support a link that’s much wider because everyone’s requests accumulate there.
Someone goes and upgrades that link. Well now they can serve many more other nodes so they start advertising to put others’ viral information on the node with larger link.
I think for a “happy” porn instance to exist, there needs to be something like at most 3-4 “new” posts per moderator per day. Maybe even less than that.
I’ve worked as a cyber forensic specialist and I needed to take a few months off after some cases. And I was being paid.
Porn is not talked about “mainstream” enough and as a result there are probably as many “good” sexual communities as there are “bad”. I have no idea really I don’t think anyone does but I think it’s fair to explore the 50/50 threat model. I think it’s worth adding “grey” area and making it a 34/33/33 split. Because there are some communities that have been trying to make an argument that they aren’t bad and some other communities think they are bad… So I think at best we can have federation islands of like-minded sexual communities only.
“bad” content creators know they are bad and are illegal. So if lemmy adds features to quickly trace and expose “bad” content creators to authorities this can help. But this where the challenge comes - on Reddit “good” content creators trusted the admins to not dox them. On lemmy you now have to trust the instance admins. More over the federated nature makes this even more challenging - if a “bad” instance comes out your only choice is to defederate and maybe send a email to the feds (and likely face some sort of audit as well). Because if the same tracking tools become available across instances then it’s going to be doxxing galore.
I should add that I’m sitting in a waiting room about to have a minor surgery I’m very nervous about and posting online is me currently trying to ignore my feelings so this post’s reasoning is likely incomplete
Just a side note, ActivityPub protocol - the core engine that lets all of fediverse to talk to the rest of the fediverse is… 5 years old. Every feature imaginable is still to be implemented.
Yup, I’ve been plagued by this bug for a long time. I’m very excited to use this!
