One of my big gripes with the manga subreddit was the focus on constant character objectification. It's fine if you like that, but there were always tons oneshots and fan-art that were basically porn, instead of focusing on an interesting story.

Do you think things will be different this time? Do you want them to be?

B-but my whyfoo! She's 120% better than yours! Look at her, so qt!!!1one Also here's some fan art of her, showing almost everything and a bit more. Check the comments for a link to a dojin with a self-insert that I did, totally not me! /joke

Serious now. It depends a lot on how the comm is moderated, as well as the type of people who settle in. In general people in the Fediverse seems to be a bit more mature and well-adjusted than in Reddit, so there's a good chance that they'll discourage the almost-porn.

Plus this community being hosted in a SFW instance helps - the hornier folks will be probably at lemmynsfw.com or a similar instance, not here.

I do like some eroticism, mind you, but... come on there's a time and place for that.
