you mean they should turn off the user-count-go-uppinator? but how would the fediverse grow like that?? /s
(sorry i just have opinions on large instances)
The nature of a site like reddit (and lemmy and all other alternatives) means a large userbase is necessary. Not at the expense of CSAM, but also everyone trying to gatekeep lemmy doesn’t realise that we’ll die a slow death unless the fediverse grows by at least 10-20x.
Doesn’t have to be all on one instance though. Instances shouldn’t grow beyond what they can admin/moderate
I’m pretty sure they were complicit in this and were not really trying to fight it.
Actual CSAM on pawoo wasn’t even a problem. It was just spam from feds or scammers.

I browse in dark mode for a reason.
Would like to see a yearly mass purge of all CSAM instances.
Why wait a year?
Why are there people downvoting people commenting about not wanting CSAM?

Nah. They’re lax about loli. Which, as distasteful as it is, does not involve any harm to actual children. They do go after actual CSAM.

Not really, they’re lax about CSAM and didn’t even have laws until 2016-2017. Even then the laws are lax
They go after it mainly to appease external forces like other countries objecting to it, but people who are convicted often get very light sentences.
What does the acronym CSA mean? I’m not native English.
CSAM is Child Sexual Exploitation Material
People prefer using this term over CP because the word “porn” is considered too soft. Porn is generally a consensual, adult medium made with adults for adults. CP is not that, it’s first and foremost harm of a child.
Another reason is that “CP” got jokingly coopted by abusers in the form of various dogwhistles (e.g.: “cheese pizza”). It made more sense to adopt a new acronym rather than try to uphold any sense of decorum while sharing ownership of the term w/ edgelords & predators.
I mean it’s more accurate and unambiguous. Definitely preferable overall IMO.
That’s strange to me, because Child Porn sounds revolting to me but CSAM sounds like something I can treat with aspirin.
CSAM is a pretty sterile term so I can see where that feeling comes from.
“Child Sexual Abuse Material”. It’s an awkward acronym that’s mostly overtaken “Child Pornography”.
Thanks.
did i get banned or smth
