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.

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

Yes please!! I’ll review your PR. :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Please do!!! It would be so helpful

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I guess it's my app but I can block entire instances or just a single community

Use a lemmynsfw login for porn and block nsfw on your main account.

I am still interested in non-pornographic NSFW content, so that's too overkill for me.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I have never seen a non nsfw post that wasn't porn on Lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I follow cannabis communities and they sometimes mark nsfw. Also, sometimes cat pics get marked nsfw for funny.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

so your argument is that sometimes its funny to mis-tag posts? guess we should untag porn posts as a joke then.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

They didn't make that argument. They just pointed out that it DOES happen

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

They're definitely rare but they do exist. It's the principle anyways - because they'll likely become a lot more common as the site grows.

Also I think you worded that backwards.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

That doesn’t stop the porn from getting through.
