If I post nsfw onto a community hosted on lemmynsfw, for example, from the sh.itjust.works account, would that breaking the no pron rule, or not necessarily, since it’s posted on a different instance?

This is impersonation.
Oh never mind it’s real. Go on. Post nsfw all you want.
It’s not. He’s @thedude@lemmynsfw.com, not the admin.
It is amazingly dumb that the webui doesn’t actually show a user’s instance by default; at least (some) apps are more sane in that regard.
Doesn’t it? Or does it not if they have a display name set?
The display name obscures all identifying information. Someone was trolling lemmy.world by impersonating Ruud like the day before beehaw defederated the both of us. Very major design flaw, you should always be able to easily identify users from other servers.
Oh Now I see how that works
I just noticed this mention, but I can‘t figure out the context anymore. Seems like it was somehow controversial, but I have no idea what it was. Did not mean to offend anyone… - could you help me out with some context information (what it all was about)? Thanks.
@TheDude@sh.itjust.works is our admin. A user spoofing (I think) the name @TheDude@lemmynsfw.com and claiming to be the admin. He posted some nsfw pictures and told people that rules our admin put in place aren’t in place anymore.
OK, thanks for your reply and the clarification. So it was not me. I could probably have chosen a more unique user name when signing up, though.
But it still remains somewhat strange, because in the comment history of that posts it seems that I had made some comment, which was first massively downvoted and then deleted. So, I was wondering, which kind of comment this may have been.
