    Imgur purge is actively happening. Safe to say we will be in that era soon enough, give or take 2 years optimistically. Being pessimistic, 1 year. To bring even more depression, during this year, in realtime right now, content is being purged at a rate where you will be lucky if you manage to salvage all that you need to.

    We are in the most turbulent era of internet that we might ever see, before the AI age dawns upon us. Grab a couple 4 TB Seagate HDDs and save anything you need to. Movies, documentaries, songs, obscure YouTube videos, photo galleries, game ROMs, webpages, documents… anything. Ham that internet connection with whatever freerange VPN you can.

            I am hurrying up as much as I can, and also being a Lemmy watchdog to see the instances popping up and user traffic. I will try getting them onboard.

                I was asked this. Please discuss it swiftly.


                I’m confused. Help me out lemmy users/runners. It says “No Porn” on the homepage. But during sign up there’s a tickbox to “Show NSFW content” ?
                So…only non-porn NSFW content is allowed?
                Would lemmy.ml consider audio “porn” as porn? Or merely NSFW?
                Because if there are communities on reddit that I want to still have access to via RSS and json after the API change, it’d be r/gonewildaudio r/gonewildaudible r/audiosgonewild r/darksideplayground r/PillowTalkaudio r/KinkyPillowTalkAudio r/eroticliterature r/GWASapphic r/gwascriptguild r/GoneWildAudioGay r/sexystories As this is a FOSS project, I presume only the lemmy.ml instance doesn’t allow porn?
                Is there a Q&A style lemmy instance finder that does allow porn a la https://instances.social/ ?
                Because https://join-lemmy.org/instances is all I could find and that doesn’t seem helpful.
                How do I find the most popular porn supported instance? Thanks.


                This was a message sent to me. The point they were trying make besides this is regarding archival of porn content being considered as NSFW. Also I am seeing massive complaint about Lemmy UI being very visually bloated compared to old.reddit.com, which is putting off many users, reminding them of the new.reddit.com travesty.

      I agree fully, but I want to add that I would not suggest a freerange VPN.

      Nothing is free on a free VPN - you pay with your data. It’s always a question of trust using any type of VPN, but a free VPN is 100% going to sell collected information to … whom ever.

      Anything else. Yes. Save everything, leech everything. I hate streaming music… it makes no sense to me. A movie I watch once … mh. maybe. Anything else. Load it. Save it. Hoard it.

        I highlighted the top VPNs courtesy r/vpntorrents. https://lemmy.ml/comment/439232

        Being able to archive is the most important factor. My point is to hurry up and, if needed, deprioritise other things in life. This time, and internet in its current state, is never coming back. This is not a paranoid doomer brain, this is reality, and we are witnessing it right now in realtime.
