    You’re probably best to search for an instance that explicitly says they’re for NSFW communities and create an account there.

    SavvyWolf points out here that SFW instances typically try to avoid federation with NSFW instances. Meaning if you create an account on a SFW instance, it would be against the rules to subscribe to a NSFW community elsewhere (with the way federation works, this would cause NSFW posts made elsewhere to start showing up on the SFW instance).

    As Korgen pointed out here, if you do find an instance that allows NSFW content, you’ll need to be logged into a Lemmy account to view any of it.

    Your best bet is to create a Lemmy account on a NSFW instance specifically for subscribing to NSFW communities. However, it honestly doesn’t seem like there are a lot of NSFW communities right now. I can only assume it’s because the user base is still small and most people don’t want to post smut in a community of like 3 people.
