Welcome to politcal memes!

You can prevent child porn and everything from federating in, you just have to restrict your instance. lemm.ee does not allow any images to be locally hosted. It becomes a bit of a hassle having to manually host something somewhere else, but that's how reddit started out so nae bother.
Apparently they just allowed image uploads a few days ago. There's a pinned post on either !support@lemm.ee or !meta@lemm.ee
Edit: for your convenience
The post is in /c/meta@lemm.ee, though it's one that I missed.
Non-instance agnostic link (because there are no instance agnostic links for comments or posts): https://lemm.ee/post/19843583
I really wish instances didn't links for their comments and posts.
lemmy.world/comment/123456is a different link tolemm.ee/comment/123456, when really it should simply be thatlemmy.world/comment/123456is the same aslemm.ee/comment/123456@lemmy.world.Sure, you can cripple part of the functionality to prevent it. Doesn't sound like something I'd want to do.
Personally I'd say that reddit starting to self-host stuff was a big turning point in when the site started getting shit.
