CivitAI’s NSFW Purge Sparks User Revolt—Platform Sacrifices Kink for ’Mainstream Adoption’
CivitAI just learned the hard way: when you take the ’adult’ out of AI art, you’re left with angry artists and a plummeting token price. The platform’s abrupt ban on erotic content has users fleeing faster than a rug-pull scam.
Behind the corporate-speak about ’safe AI ecosystems’ lies a familiar playbook—sacrificing early adopters to woo VC cash. Meanwhile, decentralized alternatives are already soaking up the exiled creators. Another case of centralized platforms cutting off their nose to spite their face.
Funny how ’community guidelines’ always tighten right before a funding round. Your move, Web3.
