Hi all. I was excited when I saw a new Dead by Daylight community was created and I've been trying to post daily to get it going. Its not my community, but I would love to have a thriving Dead by Daylight community on the Fediverse.

Some Dead by Daylight game content can be mature in theme, and I marked some posts as NSFW because I thought they might be a bit borderline, but I also noticed those posts I did mark as NSFW saw almost no interaction. Not even from the community owner. I suspect the issue is the NSFW flag and I second guessed and removed it, but I wanted to hear perspectives from others on that. Is violent game content worth marking NSFW? Should I just wait and see if anybody is bothered? Does marking things NSFW limit their growth a great deal?

That's fair. That's what initially made me mark them. I think my understanding of NSFW might be more stringent than most, as others have mentioned that users can always block the more graphic stuff if they think it would be an issue.
