There has been a steady trickle of new users here today, and in the past little while, mostly due to the bad decisions that reddit is currently making.

Anyways, welcome! Feel free to look around, and if you have any questions about anything lemmy related, feel free to ask!

In the rules it says no porn allowed, does that also mean no viewing/commenting under porn? What if you post porn to another instance?

It's not the content I came here to post, but I think the answer will help me understand better how this works as the inter-operability is a bit confusing. As in, is the content posted to another instance hosted there or on this one (due to my account being here), and do I follow their rules, these rules, or both?

viewing/commenting is fine. posting to another instance, it not allowed, because the media would still be stored on this server.

yes, with federation things can get confusing. generally, i would say that you'd need to follow the rules of both servers, when posting/commenting on another instance.

hope that helps!
