If you see content that violates your copyright, is a nonconsensual post, is something you once posted but would now like to delete, please reach out to the admins on here or on matrix, rather than reporting it to cloudflare.

We take these types of issues very seriously and will never deny these types of requests. Reporting these things to cloudflare puts the site at risk of being shut down. Additionally, reporting the issue directly to us will almost definitely result in the images/videos being taken down quicker than if you were to report it to cloudflare.

The site admins and the link to our matrix can be found in the sidebar.

I'm going to use this post answer some frequently asked questions about the transition from LemmyNSFW to FediNSFW and why it happened.

• What happened, why the move?

  • Details can be found in this post
  • Details about how Lemmynsfw is up again and why it's an archive now can be found in this post

• Do I have to make a new account on FediNSFW?

  • Yes.

• Can I still post on LemmyNSFW?

  • Please don't, that will make storage costs and data usage go up, eventually I plan to modify the site's code to fully prevent post creation.

  • Please use FediNSFW instead.

• How are you going to ensure the exact same thing won't happen to FediNSFW?

  • I already have other admin candidates I working with/onboarding.
  • I plan to set up the accounts related to the site to be accessible by other admins via a unified admin email address, or via group access.
  • I'm going to create a bitwarden vault with relevant credentials in it for all admins. That way if something happens and I disappear other admins can just login and take over.
  • As far as cost goes, FOR NOW I can fully afford the cost of the server without donations, as far as I can tell at least.
  • Currently the donations are just set to go into my personal account, but I would love to get to the point where we can set something up like or maybe joining the fedihosting foundation and have a pool of donations accessible without me. Not sure how I'm going to do that yet, so if you have suggestions, please let me know.

• What apps can I use to connect to piefed/FediNSFW?

  • You can find a list of apps here

• How can I donate to the instance?

  • Donate Here:

    • Ko-fi

    • LibrePay

    • Patreon

    • Monero Address: 41jp2mx2NqXdtxZra9BzvYYuYca4oWgpxYZvx8nmQB9zFncCejjhqdzMMBmHBeK5LoGN16yM2ttSsTFDSSbBnWFi5rnJQXJ

The answers to these questions are subject to change/get appended as needed.

The LemmyNSFW is basically just eating up all the resources it can at this point, at first I thought it was just postgrea and the main server, but pictrs is also doing it.

I have stopped lemmynsfw processes on the server, but my VPS provider has limited performance on the server, so Fedinsfw will most likely be very very slow for a week :( sorry for the inconvenience guys.

For those who don't know the original reason LemmyNSFW went down:
Xaeg/Yay was the owner of LemmyNSFW, and he had access to and paid for the domain, server, and everything else related to the site. He had been AWOL for about 6 months, and suddenly in mid February of 2026, the server and the domain stopped being paid for. I had no access to the server to get the database.

Because of this, it appeared LemmyNSFW as it was, and all the content on it, had died.

So I created FediNSFW.app to be the replacement! It is a piefed instance instead of a lemmy one because if there’s one thing NSFW content benefits from it’s good moderation tools and flairs, and piefed has those things.

now, back to the new update:

How is LemmyNSFW online now?

Xaeg finally responded! he gave me access to a backup of the site and ownership of the domain!

What does this change?

tldr: LemmyNSFW is now an archive, FediNSFW.app is the new fully running instance

Fedinsfw.app will continue to run as a normal piefed instance, and lemmynsfw will be an archive for the foreseeable future. It is just too much work and cost to manage two instances and all their storage and cost right now. Additionally piefed's advanced moderation and community options are just a much better fit for a NSFW instance like this.

Hopefully this solution feels like "the best of both worlds" so to speak: This way you can view the posts you've made and even crosspost old posts to fedinsfw.app if you'd like, while also benefiting from the awesome piefed features.

Edit: Holy moly, something in lemmy is running wild and eating up a ton of resources, until I diagnose it, lemmynsfw will be down

Edit 2: ok, I think it's good now, emphasis on THINK, the status of lemmynsfw may be subject to change

This post is to announce the creation of ![email protected] and the fact that the code of fedinsfw.app has been changed so that ![email protected] is the community that new communities on the site will post to if they enable the "announce community" checkbox. Sorry for the absolute spamming the past few days!

I don't have full admin access in the LemmyNSFW matrix room, so I've created a matrix room where I do. This will be the main FediNSFW room going forward

FediNSFW Matrix Room

I've gotten several complaints about this, it's seems like it's checked by default for some reason. Please make sure to uncheck it if you create a community, ESPECIALLY if you make multiple in a short period of time.

Edit: this has been fixed piefed dev, but please make sure it is unchecked

There were a few settings I needed to change and issues with the s3 bucket. I am still working out the kinks, sorry about this, the instance will not be reset like this again.

Sorry for the inconvenience, this type of thing will never happen again, and from here on out I will back up the site periodically.
