If you run your own homeserver you don't need to. Unfortunately, letting anonymous people upload photos etc. is a non-starter in this day and age.

Says who? Who will stop you? In a decentralized network each person adjusts their filters. In a distributed network suddenly police become important because everyone is hold a piece of your data.

Assuming you don't want the standard protections on user-uploaded content to apply for whatever reason, it's far easier to just throw user-uploaded images into one of the billion cheap little convnets trained to detect illicit material than it is to demand your users, who come to you solely for an anonymous platform, dox themselves.

Pubky uses the Outbox model and #PKARR for resource discovery. I'm not actually involved in it, but iirc Start9 and Umbrel apps coming soon.

It's a question of risk approach. I am generally happy to allow people to use my servers/resources if I know them or if they are in my community. I guess Pubky's alternative risk approach can be recognised in its architecture. It's using semantic social, and this will be useful for community credit, as well as a bunch of other trust related stuff. Proof of the pudding will be in the eating tho.
Pedos don't need to be anonymous to upload nasty shit. Go take a lot at all the telegram and WhatsApp links that gets shared to Nostr. The fact that these anonymous pedophiles don't share media directly to Nostr kinda speaks for itself. Telegram WhatsApp and Facebook messages are the 3 most popular apps used by pedophiles for distributing media
