If I post nsfw onto a community hosted on lemmynsfw, for example, from the sh.itjust.works account, would that breaking the no pron rule, or not necessarily, since it’s posted on a different instance?

    It’s fundamental to the design of Lemmy’s implementation of federation via ActivityPub that all content from an account be hosted on the account’s instance.

      If it’s an ActivityPub feature, this is somewhat of a poor design if you ask me (or at least not being able to change this). He’s right, this feature could put instance owners in legal problems, because the data in question is actually stored on their server, not the server that you posted the image on.
