    Redditors complaining about CSAM? Last I checked Reddit had a subreddit called r/18_19 (a porn subreddit for adult teenagers aged under 20) with over 1.5 million subscribers. I sorry, but there is no way that all the posters there are over 18, given Reddit’s lax verification practices on NSFW instances. That’s some “trust me bro” nonsense. Reddit had r/jailbait and violentacerz not even a decade ago. Spez was there back then too.

    I have never seen any CSAM on Lemmy. If it’s an issue, it should be dealt with the utmost urgency and concern though.

      Some people really hate lemmy. There was another post in that subreddit with a screenshot of some csam instance with the title what is wrong with Lemmy. This is enough for people who is looking for a reason to not leave Reddit. Another talking point of these people are the political leaning of Lemmy devs. E.g. See this thread https://mstdn.social/@PVTejas/111022248039156302

        I really don’t get why people care so much about the political opinions of the devs, you’re just using the software they’re making and not hanging out with them or something

          i mean, when the revolution comes *checks calender* sometime in Q3 next year, i expect post screenshots across the lemmyverse to appear in multiple kangaroo trials and summary executions. But of course the same is true of Reddit, so who cares.

        Knowing reddit, I’m willing to guess they weren’t even talking about actual CSAM either, but instead whining that a certain instance allows lewd drawings of certain fictional characters that are “totally equivalent to real kids being abused!!1!” according to them
