This may be an unpopular option since I've already seen it across lemmy, but the ____porn communities. I'd like to browse pictures of nice landscapes or exotic cars without worry about someone around me noticing "PORN" on my screen.
At this point it seems very old internet, something that made sense when those communities were established, but now is unnecessary gratuitous and not socially acceptable.
I saw a post about a community created here called "pixel passport" which I thought was a hell of a lot better that "earth porn."
EarthPixels. CarPixels. PornPixels. HistoryPixels. This could work.
Voat, when it was still around, had this same discussion and settled on using _Pix for everything.
I really like that name. Way better than Earthporn. Thank you for sharing, I subscribed!

Indeed. I like 'Earthporn' too, but I think it should be all nature pictures that look like genitalia and suchlike. Rocks or trees that look like penises for example.
Nothing like someone peaking over your shoulder and seeing you're browsing r/AnimalPorn....
I totally agree with you. Hopefully lemmy can be a little more mature with community names. (Yeah, yeah.. I know the hypocrisy of my username.. It's my gamertag)
There is (was?) a ”nosillysuffix” sub that would aggregate all those *porn subs.
Damn, I had forgotten how obnoxious that was on Reddit. Blocked all of those years ago because it was just unnecessary and a gross way to qualify otherwise unremarkable photos.
