Just like Betamax vs VHS, Lemmy is going nowhere until there's more instances that host ALL content including NSFW.

why does every instance need to host all content if i can just follow a community on a different instance for that sort of content?
While I don't think every instance needs to host everything, I think the most popular instances being a bunch that don't host NSFW and one that only hosts NSFW is an issue. I don't blame instance admins, as NSFW content introduces additional difficulties, but it still doesn't necessarily look the best.
I know the going advice is "choose a medium popularity instance" which I did, but it took me a while to find one that allowed NSFW but wasn't NSFW-only.
