Hi all. I was excited when I saw a new Dead by Daylight community was created and I've been trying to post daily to get it going. Its not my community, but I would love to have a thriving Dead by Daylight community on the Fediverse.

Some Dead by Daylight game content can be mature in theme, and I marked some posts as NSFW because I thought they might be a bit borderline, but I also noticed those posts I did mark as NSFW saw almost no interaction. Not even from the community owner. I suspect the issue is the NSFW flag and I second guessed and removed it, but I wanted to hear perspectives from others on that. Is violent game content worth marking NSFW? Should I just wait and see if anybody is bothered? Does marking things NSFW limit their growth a great deal?

There is an option to not see NSFW posts in the lemmy settings, so not only will some people not look at them, others will never even see them.

I'd the content is in images, maybe put the image in the body of the post within a spoiler tag rather than flagging the post nsfw.

I have this enabled, lemmy has had spam waves that I really don’t need on my phone if I check at work

Most of the content is in embedded videos. The two in question are from tiktok and from a twitch clip. Not sure how they appear in other clients but in mine I have to click them to open the full screen

Still something that could be put into a spoiler tag.

I looked at your profile to look at the content in question, but either I have the community blocked, or my instance is defederated from its host instance.

Oh that's odd! I don't know much about Europe.pub, I only really briefly looked at their top communities to try and judge if it was a nazibar but wasn't super diligent. Thanks for trying to take a look for me :)

Followup I forgot to ask, do you mean to put the links in the body in spoiler tags, or can that be done in the "link" part of the form?

In the body in the spoiler tag
