I just reached 112 myself.

I’m very much awaiting a time when users can block specific instances. I still don’t want to check the option to hide NSFW content, because I do want to see NSFW content that may show up on non-porn communities. Just not really interested in seeing so much porn in All.

You can check on your settings page, btw, in the Blocks tab - count quickly with Ctrl+F.

    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.

      I really don’t get it. I use wefwef and don’t see any nsfw, like at all. You just simply uncheck it on your home instance. And just learned today wefwef also has a nsfw toggle which was off for me

    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.

        Boss: “And here I see you’ve accessed something called ‘Lemmy’ 315 times today, what the hell is that?”

        @ttmrichter: “Oh, no worries, I blocked all the porn.”

      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?

      Will genuinely never understand people that treat home as their personal feed. WTF is subscribed for? 😵‍💫😮‍💨

        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)

        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.

    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 WISH i had this problem; it’s so difficult to find the porn i used to get from reddit and ALL of porn instances i found were either straight or dildo/ass/dick pics.

    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.

    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

      I’m lemmy.world too, and I’ve got porn in my All feed a few times a day even with how many I’ve blocked - and all of my blocked ones have come directly from All. So who knows? Maybe you’re only browsing Local?

        Lemmy.world here too and I haven’t seen any porn in my feed yet (local or all). Although, I’ve only been browsing for at most 10 minutes a few times a week.

    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…

          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 might actually submit a feature request for this. Maybe default to simple wildcard blocks with an “advanced” mode that enables regex matching.

    None, like the porn posts need to be clicked on to show the picture so it’s not really an issue and even if it was visible by default I wouldn’t mind, it’s just porn. I would block gore but I haven’t come across that yet.

    I’ve only blocked all the trans ones that pop up cause I just am not interested in that frankly.

    Other than that, I scroll past the odd post but they’re blurred so it’s really not an issue to me. I can click it if I want and I’m not in a place I shouldn’t be
