As admins, we removed the scat communities, thinking that scat was covered by the NSFL. However, some people have opposing views on this matter. What do you think about it? If people want it allowed, then we can restore content.

Edit: My answer for friends in the comments; The main reason NSFL was banned is because we currently don’t have the tools to separate porn from NSFL. I’m in favor of the ban because I think its the same way in scat. If we had enough tools right now, we wouldn’t be ban the NSFL either. Although, I agree that voting for niche fetishes doesn’t make sense.

Edit 2: Also I don’t want to think about shit anymore. I’m out 😀 https://lemmynsfw.com/post/117500

    NSFL stands for Not Safe For Life. While NSFW covers things that are generally considered socially acceptable in private situations, but inappropriate for more public or formal situations, NSFL is for stuff that could be traumatizing or deeply disturbing, even in a private context.

    Stuff like extreme violence or abuse can be more obvious examples of NSFL, but stuff like scat is more of a gray (well, gray-ish brown) area.

    Ultimately, the issue is that this place needs a more sophisticated filtering system.
