seriously though how the fuck have there not been enough angel investors to put together a site that isn't INTENDED for porn that allows nonsexual female nipples and full body nudity, as well as discussions ABOUT sex, to fill the extremely wide dearth left by the fascists over at the mainstream platforms, who are totally fine with nazis and antivaxxers, but shriek in horror at so much as a female nipple or the word "sex"?
I keep talking to more and more people who think the stigma and bans are BS, #sexWorkers, #sexEducators, #nudists, #naturists, #normalizeNudity and #toplessequality activists, #eroticArtists, #eroticphotographers, etc etc etc, and so many of them resent the hypocritical, sexist, misogynist and so many other - ists nature of #censorship on mainstream platforms, but somehow none of us have the money or connections to start our own alternative place that, again, allows nonsexual nudity and discussions ABOUT sex (but not explicit sexual content itself, otherwise that website just becomes "a porn site" that only people looking for sexual content will visit)?
especially with the death of #twitter, which was the ONLY mainstream platform that allowed sexual content without being Platform focused ONLY on sex? there's such a huge need for it--so why? who? how do we get that ball rolling?
I don't have any money, I can't break even just on the expenses I incur on my own content. even if I did, I don't have the skills or time to set my own video hosting social network up.
and yes there's peertube, but the fact that people keep suggesting I post to peertube without knowing I ALREADY HAVE BEEN FOR YEARS is exactly what's wrong with peertube--each peertube host is its own silo, with extremely confusing limitations on being able to find content from people you don't already follow, or so someone you follow shares.
and no, mastodon/the fediverse is not the answer. the reality is that the vast majority just can't figure out how to use this place. I came here out of desperation, tired of getting banned everywhere else, and even I still struggle greatly trying to find fellow #freethenipple activists, or even just nudists, naturists, sex workers, and others who might be inclined to agree with my mission. mastodon is great for what it is, but it's simply not worth the time investment for the majority of people. you shouldn't have to learn how to build your own computer to write an email.
anyway idk I'm just confused why we seem to be stuck in this quagmire of "all the mainstream platforms suck, but I can't get my less tech savvy friends to join mastodon, so I guess I'll just give up." surely there has to be some answer between those two extremes.
