Why block them? I like a little spice with my scrolling. Plus it's a fun mystery box to see what's under the blur. Straight/gay? Cis/trans? That one guy that literally just posts 100 fully clothed celebs every hour to disappoint you? Who knows.
None. But I also never browse All. Never have, on any form of social media.
I use it as a way to discover new communities. Any recommendations on how you manage your subscription without looking at all from time to time?
I look them up at lemmyverse.net
I go there about once a week to see if there are new communities I might be interested in. I'm on a selfhosted single-user instance, so my "all" is identical to my "subscribed" and this is how I populate my feed.
Will genuinely never understand people that treat home as their personal feed. WTF is subscribed for? 😵💫😮💨
How else will people find a reason to complain about, I CLICKED ALL, AND I SEE A BUNCH OF STUFF I DON'T WANT TO SEE. HOW TO I BAN THE STUFF I DON'T LIKE, INSTEAD OF using the subscribe feature, like a normal person.
Subscribed is for the communities that I want to actively engage with every or close to every post that shows up. All/Home are for browsing popular content that I don’t want in my sub feed (memes, news, other smaller communities, etc)
I just never turn on NSFW. It's not what I came here to see.
0, zero, none, nada, niente...
PS: I like boobs
Admin for lemmynsfw here, and I just wanna say that we desperately need instance blocking for lemmy. Or at least some way for instances to be able to restrict NSFW content in /all. Some people do not want to see NSFW content or simply can't, and that's more than fine.
So much yiff stuff blocked. Being unable to block the entire instance is annoying.
Same with language specific instances I can’t understand.
None? I just stick to stuff I'm subscribed to so it's not really an issue.
Same. I'm not going to judge anyone for scrolling All, but that's definitely not a level of chaos I've ever wanted to deal with.
Connect app lets you block instances
Which I've used to block languages I don't speak from being on my all feed
We need an option to block pornographic communities, but still see non-porn NSFW content. Blocking all NSFW is too broad and will block other content.
I agree. But I’d also like the opposite. The ability to block all nonporn nsfw posts.
Seems like an “easy” solution is to add more granular nsfw tags. I never want to see blood and gore, but I don’t mind porn.
Oddly enough, none. Kind of like seeing the sheer variety the Internet had to offer (plus those folks have so much confidence it's almost admirable). And at least it's not gore-- I've seen accidently seen way too many dead bodies mindlessly unblurring pictures on Reddit or foolishly clicking troll links.
Probably going to change to block nsfw when my little ones are old enough to steal my phone and browse my account, though.
I haven't seen anything from lemmynsfw, so - zero. Though I don't spend a lot of time beyond my subscriptions and local feed.
I think lemmy.ml is defederated from lemmynsfw
Oh no! Anyway, I created a separate account there, because I don't want porn in my regular feed.
Almost none. I browse all almost exclusively and have nsfw enabled, but none of the communities really bother me enough to block them. I just scroll past the stuff that I don't have any interest in, same as sfw content.
That has always been allowed. As long as you don't want others to censor nsfw, all is good. I like porn. I want more high quality porn on Lemmy. That takes time.
This isn't about controlling what others see - I'd just like for users to be able to block entire instances, because blocking 3 more porn communities every time I reload All gets tiring.
I like porn when I'm in the mood for it. I've got an alt on lemmynsfw for that. Though I feel your point about high quality content: The specific stuff I'm interested in hasn't had a new post in a month. The only thing I still use reddit for, really...
Yea they should have wildcard blocks. ‘*@lemmynsfw.com’
I would prefer regex blocking, as there are categories of communities that I am not interested in seeing regardless of which instance they are on. It is annoying to have to continually block them because someone setup a new instance and created the same community again.
I went the other way. Made accounts on lemmynsfw and Lemmy.world and then couldn't log into my lemmyworld for some reason.
I browse all from lemmynsfw, and it's virtually pornfree.
None, since feddit.de hast lemmynsfw.com blocked. I wouldn't mind porn I think, but it's fine without as well. If I ever want to check out porn lemmy I'll make another account for that.
Just the dicks
Maybe 12? Just the celebrity ones that kept popping up, really. Not only because I do not give a single fuck about any celebrity enough to have a desire to see them naked, but also because those subs don't actually have porn which is the content I expect from that instance.
I mean, I had to find and make an account on the instance just to see most of it in the first place when I was looking for hentai and furry porn communities.
If by "block" you mean "haven't bothered to look at ever" ... well, all of them.
None.... because I don't see any of them. Ever.
If I were subscribed to them, I might see them.
But, I do not see them. EVER.
I exclusively browse "All" and block communities I don't want to see. I haven't found enough I want to sub to, and those I have subbed to don't have enough content.
My home lemmy instance doesn't federate with NSFW instances to reduce legal risks which I totally support for their protection. In addition to the things which are outright illegal just about everywhere there is content that may or may not be legal in some places and an individual running a small instance doesn't have the legal funds or the protection from liability enjoyed by huge corporations. It is nice not having to worry about it when using the app in public or around family.
I've found it much more effective to ban the spam posters / bot posters in general, instead of communities. That catches the worst of it and mostly eliminates all of the cross posting.
I think my home instance blocks porn-only instances, which is fine with me. I can open an account on the porn instance if I want, it's not the same kind of browsing.
Disabled nsfw for now, before that I tried blocking all the creepy celebrity-communities. There's one for every third rate female celeb under the sun and the guys posting there are spamming every picture with a hint of cleavage or leg.
Connect for Lemmy has a block instances feature. No idea how well it works though
Way too many. I'd like to see occasional non-sexual NSFW content in my All feed, hence not turning on NSFW filtering, but lemmynsfw is too prolific in my All feed.
I just have nsfw as a whole blocked. I have other ways to see porn if I want to and I want to use Lemmy in places where my daughter or my boss won't walk by and think I'm looking at porn.
If that's your thing, go for it, but it is too much of a risk for me with little reward.
I have NSFW posts disabled anyway
None.
I browse mainly subscriptions, so I didn't see them
I hear people talk about porn in All but I never see it despite not filtering for NSFW. Not sure why that is. Something to do with the particular instance I'm connected to? I believe that is Lemmy.world
None. I just don't browse All.
I blocked the whole instance. I'll admit that I do want to see nude females (who are obviously adults) but I was seeing lots of other stuff that I don't find sexy, and blocking specific communities was like playing whack-a-mole.
