This is why Reddit is banned in Indonesia; because there's a bit of porn. Now laypeople just use Twitter instead...

"a bit"

Hehe, that's a fair take, but I must also mention that I've encountered far more porn unwittingly/unexpectedly on Twitter than I EVER, ever, ever have on reddit. Again speaking to the utility of moderation in general.

How do you encounter porn? It's not even allowed, other than age gated softcore shit.

I assure you there is far more than softcore and often on accounts where it isn’t obvious until you’ve viewed the offending tweet that there may be X-Rated audiovisual content.

I’m sure much of it violates the rules but my initial inclination is always to browse away, not report.

People on certain apps often have links to profiles that I basically can't read because every post is NSFW. I used to be able to at least peek with Nitter but now I just insta close most Twitter links.

I'm pretty sure a few explicit Google searches with "site:twitter.com" should pull up plenty.

And I'm not talking softcore, unless my descriptions are way off base.

Granted those aren't necessarily unwittingly, I can usually guess it's going to be like that, but I've definitely "fallen into a rabbit hole" so to speak at other times.

On reddit, if you're not subbed to porn subreddits, you normally wouldn't see it. Though the homepage was still jacked up enough a few days ago that I was seeing softcore stuff on page 1 or 2 with the country set to Mexico.

Twitter moderation has cratered .. reports to the contrary otherwise.

You'll see a fair degree of NSFW porn if you firehose capture all images, on the "hate speech" front (repeatedly calling disabled, minority, indigenous, queer people names, cyber stalking, etc.) it's reached the point where (for instance) Australia has warned Twitter it will start issuing daily fines of up to $7K AUD [1]

The increased porn & veering into CSAM territory is tailwinding that trend.

That would be news to many users of twitter. Even the gating is... inconsistent.

Because Twitter has no porn?
Re:The rule says, “No vehicles in the park” by testermelon on Friday June 23, 2023 @10:07PM (#36454761)
It’s because twitter HAS porn.
