I just made an account in bluesky. And was greeted by lots of anime tits. Nothing against people's preferences, but is this how businesses nowadays greet new customers? I mean, they are trying to build a twitter alternative, aren't they?
Bro that’s just the internet. When I left Reddit I had over a thousand anime subs blocked. Took me weeks of blocking them when I first got here last year. Twitter wasn’t as bad for me since I never look at the curated right wing propaganda TL and only look at who I follow which is all mostly sports beat writers and hardcore sports fans.
There was a recent change in Twitter's posting policies. They now have decided that any art posted to twitter, twitter owns. There is an on going exodus of artists who decided on bluesky as their new homes. There might be algo bias going on from the influx.
Damn are there that many anime related communities on Lemmy? I feel like the vast majority would be instance specific e.g ani.social and pawb.social but nobody's really browsing those if you aren't looking for anime stuff
Mastodon is better because it's federated. I'd never heard of bluesky but I just looked it up(no account even) and it appears that you are correct, it is filled with anime porn.
Bluesky is a platform where, like any other social platform, businesses can try to establish themselves to better communicate with and to become more approachable to customers. What OP is asking is why a business would want to make a Bluesky account if Bluesky has NSFW stuff like anime porn front and center (and the problem doesn't seem to be whether there is porn in Bluesky, but it's more about it being everywhere you look when creating an account)
The furry and anime community are not the same and don't overlap as much as people think. The anime community is more about Japanese culture and animated Japanese TV shows and films, while the furry community only really care about stuff related with anthropomorphic animals. There are some anthropomorphic characters in anime like girls with cat ears, but they barely look alike fursonas.
Whenever I think of people who would like to see anime tits, I think of young and mostly virgin straight (and maybe also bi?) dudes, not exactly a diverse community as LGBT+.
Hopefully this link shared correctly, but I found that furries are all over the place there. And while I don’t care that they want to be furries, I don’t really want to see it all over.
Anyway, this moderation list has helped a lot in filtering out a lot of that type of post and has made my experience a lot better.
It’s a scary looking link, but I promise I just hit the share button from the app. This list is called “Ultimate Furry Mute”
it's that + all of the iNfLuEnCeRs from Twitter who consider Twitter now beyond the pale, it's a good thing to me that this is all somewhere I can easily avoid 😄
