i can’t stand megathreads – no one reads these! no one wants their posts banished there!
This may be an unpopular option since I’ve already seen it across lemmy, but the ____porn communities. I’d like to browse pictures of nice landscapes or exotic cars without worry about someone around me noticing “PORN” on my screen.
At this point it seems very old internet, something that made sense when those communities were established, but now is unnecessary gratuitous and not socially acceptable.
I saw a post about a community created here called “pixel passport” which I thought was a hell of a lot better that “earth porn.”
EarthPixels. CarPixels. PornPixels. HistoryPixels. This could work.
OnlyPixels sounds great, too, for a general community of nice everything.
Voat, when it was still around, had this same discussion and settled on using _Pix for everything.
I really like that name. Way better than Earthporn. Thank you for sharing, I subscribed!

Indeed. I like ‘Earthporn’ too, but I think it should be all nature pictures that look like genitalia and suchlike. Rocks or trees that look like penises for example.
I agree. I think it’s terrible name, and ti just invites unnecessary drama.

Does anyone else remember the whole Boston Bomber fiasco (i.e. We did it, Reddit)?
Can we stop talking about Reddit? Let it go.
