Why does everything have to be sexualised and sensationalised? That’s encouraged on Reddit, and any other profit driven social media, because they’re bending over backwards to bleed you dry of engagement. It’s thoroughly unpleasant.
Lemmy has a chance to be something different. BestGuitarPics is what you’re actually curating. Or AwesomeGuitarPics if you want a little something extra. Jamming “Porn” on to everything just to try and stir a sense of interest is just sad.
“Best Guitar Pics” is dull and completely unimaginative. It’s the “Microsoft Approach of Naming Products ™”; which does not allow itself to take any risks and ends up being soulless, corporate, empty. Or to use a more contemporary reference: it’s the type of slop that ChatGPT would produce if someone asked “suggest a name for a community for people to share pictures of guitars”.
merely an example. Be sure to let BestOfLemmy etc know…
and your solution is to tack “Porn” on the end? oh dear
You are choosing to ignore the rationale for the name:
“Best”, “Awesome”, “Aww” and any other suggestions that I’ve heard do not convey these ideas. And to me these ideas must be expressed. If you can come up with anything that can succinctly make these points across without resorting to porn/fetish analogies, then I will gladly consider them. But if you just want me to change it because it offends your sensibilities, then I am sorry but I will simply ignore you.
