Some people don't feel comfortable about pics like this (because a part of her dress is lacy) and report them to the admins so as a precautionary measure, I mark such pics as NSFW. IMHO, however, there's absolutely nothing NSFW about this pic.

barring embedded image metadata (or similar) its very strange that a personal account on Instagram would be associated with moderation of this community

Well, I think that my usage of a VPN might have prompted them to flag my account but I stopped using it this past week. Also I was using an IG Downloader to get the pics so maybe that’s why they suspended my account (note: I wasn’t stealing content because I only post pics/clips of women who have given me their permission).

there are other mechanisms to browse profiles and grab images from insta that are anonymous.

I know but I also have to communicate with them when I’m not sure whether I should post a certain pic or not (maybe there are other people in it or maybe they would feel uncomfortable having that particular pic posted here, etc.)

this community brings attention to talented female martial artists that lemmy users might otherwise not be exposed to. a net positive in my mind.

Thank you for your kind words. Much appreciated.

This pic was taken from a commercial she did for a protein supplement: https://www.instagram.com/p/C7MfG8rNNTX/

Can anyone explain this in greater detail? What does this mean? Is this good or bad?

I'm just experimenting right now. If this doesn't work out, I'll get rid of NSFW Fridays altogether.

Also, I think that this community has become a bit monotonous and I'm trying to spice things up a little.

I'm wondering if you can give me some insight into this strange phenomenon: on Reddit, whenever I used to post NSFW pics, I used to get a lot of upvotes but for some reason such pics don't get many upvotes on Lemmy. Why don't Lemmy users upvote NSFW pics? Do they not like them?

Well what if I were to mark those posts as NSFW so that if you don't want to see them, Lemmy won't show them to you? Would that work?

The only way people can see NSFW content on Lemmy is if they have it enabled in their Settings panel:

I don't know about her Jiu Jitsu gym/school but she regularly wins medals in Jiu Jitsu and grappling tournaments:
