I swear I’ve tried like 5 times to delete Reddit for good, but I always and up going back after a couple of months because I miss the webms, gifs, and story posts.

I know that Lemmy seems to have some character restriction that prevents super long story posts (which I think they’ve increased the limit a bit?) and I can scratch the itch with creepy pasta, manga, or SCP archives, but why does Lemmy have such a prominent lack of gifs and webms?

All of the gif-centric communities are dead and I know that there’s no restriction to that type of content, so am I just missing something? If you’re not seeing it here, then where do you guys watch gifs and webms?

    In states and countries with porn ‘bans’ (which is increasingly becoming all of them) sites following the law require ID age check.

      Oof, I’ve read about plans to do that sort of thing but didn’t know they were already implemented. Godspeed to all affected.
