    i’m still using Reddit for porn, but for other topics i already spend more time on Lemmy. the switch is tough, but they definitely can be replaced.

      Even porn looks more boring, not sure if it’s just me or content really suffered from all this.

        Gay porn suffered long ago from people just promoting their onlyfans. Annoying af.

          That happened to all porn, it got disgusting.

          I want to see real people sharing their sexuality, not people faking it for money.

            It’s interesting, the fakeness in porn is so conspicuous. I wonder if this sense of faking-it-for-money is a component that is actually conditional to viewing pleasure for sadists and misogynists, and maybe it’s an indication that there are more people out there with those predilections than we might like to think.

        I’ve heard and have no source for this, but most of the bigger porn subreddits were basically run by people who had a ton of money trying to push their own content to the top to generate revenue.

          Makes sense considering how 99% of the porn accounts had titles such as “WHOEVER LIKES THIS WILL GET SOMETHING FREE IN THEIR INBOX, TRY ME!”

          Like damn, thousands of porn accounts made posts like this. Obviously they all hired spam companies to do it for them but what kind of ad company can’t take the time to even learn the basics about the website they’re advertising on? Really amazed me how few of the accounts seemed to actually be human, and even if human absolutely not the content creators themselves
