NSFW Curation Discord idea

Hey everyone,

Recently been playing with the idea to start a discord server for the purposes of having specific individuals basically "curate" nsfw content of different kinds (games, art, hmv, animations, vn etc etc) via the discord forum threads functionality.

I browse a lot of nsfw stuff of different kinds and also usually look at them more critically (i have a professional design background, so its kind of an occupational hazard i guess xD) but that means basically sieving through a heckin lot of lackluster content, often trying to find the good stuff in the rough.
Thats why I always hoped there would be a good way to have content curated by individuals.
Obviously these individuals might be more focused on a specific type of content to curate, but that way a user/viewer looking at whats curated can be presented with already judged and decided content.

I figured I'd make a quick thread here, simply to try and gauge interest/thoughts on something like this.

So what do y'all think?
Think this would be a great thing to have? A way to have nsfw content curated to you as a user

As someone with an education in Game Design Art & Animation, I'd love a cloistered little commune of like-minded individuals who were interested in a more critical engagement with the medium, similar to a film appreciation community filled with film majors and enthusiasts. The most shit and pushback I get around here (from plebs and mods alike) is when I critique a game at a college level, and it upsets fans who can't understand why I'm 'attacking' their new favorite thing since 'it's only a porn game', or others who complain that my posts are 'subjective' and 'overwrought' as if being thorough is a bad thing.

But, I absolutely hate the steam-of-consciousness that is Discord, and very much prefer the old-school traditional forum experience of F95. So I figured I'd just stick here, fuck the haters, and keep doing my thing where it has the best chance of being seen without actually donating on Patreon/Subscribestar or being a project simp.

Definitely know where you are coming from with the points brought up from my own experience. Happens not only with nsfw but honestly across the entirety of media, even when critiquing games in a more objective and analytical manner for example.
There could definitely be threads or chats meant for more critical discussion, but the main point would be the curation of content so that the average joe user could get higher quality content more easily recommended rather than browsing through countless pieces of whatever media to find high quality stuff.

Now, only selected individuals would be "curators" and can make their own posts, so you could definitely have some that make more elaborate and lengthy posts and some that are shorter. That is the beauty of having different curators within the same platform, it is easier for ppl to find someone they somewhat resonate with to be exposed to content they like.

With discord it is honestly the same with twitter, it is all about how you use it and what servers you are on. It itself is nothing but a feature-rich tool and like any tool (like twitter), it can be misused.
