Quick question, I’m looking to make an Mbin account and just wanted to ask if there is any lemmy.ml type of situation to be aware of.

    As long as you report the content and act fast if such kind of material is on your site. Also you can disable account registration, so it only you and maybe some friends you know that have an account.

    Last but not least, you can also block domains in Mbin. I blocked some domains I just do not want to federate with!

    NSFW site

    Like lemmynsfw (dot) com.

    And yes you can add that in the admin panel yourself.

      Even if I disable account registration, I may still be liable if somehow the content ended up on my instance due to federation right? Or is that not a concern?

        Well… the answer is always yes. But you can mitigate the problem further by not only disable account registration but also check the setting “Force users to login before they can access any content”.

        So in the end, that means that nobody can see any content without logging in. And since you are the only account, only you can see the federated content.
