Hi all! As promised, here is the proposed text of the newest version of the rules. The staff has gone through like eight drafts and literally thousands and thousands of matrix posts to get here, so please be kind. You can see @limeey’s comment on the transparency post if you want more insight into how this sausage was made.
We are opening these rules to commentary from the community before they go into effect. To be clear, this isn’t a vote, but we will take all community feedback into account and answer whatever questions we can before finalizing anything.
Please keep in mind that we are not Reddit, we do not have Reddit’s resources, and safety and consent are our priorities.
I’ll post the draft in two parts in two comments: The new sidebar, and the FAQ/clarifications page.
Was wondering if you’d be willing to re-word this sentence, as OnlyFans (and similar) is technically a sexual service (albeit digital).
No it’s not. At least in the US, OF creators are performers, which falls under free expression and is therefore protected 1st amendment activity. Sexual services involve, you know, touching and stuff.
You make sense, but I also think you could clear out the wording. It’s not obvious if it includes asking for donations, promoting paid content etc. Not everyone is familiar with US laws.
Huh, interesting.
So how does this affect those users on reddit who post a price list for their nudes? Like $5 for a nude or recorded video/selfie.
It doesn’t. A photograph is art, a video recording is art. Art is personal expression. Still not sexual services.
It might help to clarify “in person sexual services” then, because I could see this causing some confusion
