The Fediverse should do what redditors have always wanted and Reddit Inc. has always refused to do; Distinguish between NSFW and NSFL. (lemm.ee)

Nsfw, Nsfl, and "Porn"

I like nsfw memes but dont want my feed full of porn. I have a seperate account for porn.

    Yes, a renaissance artwork that contains naked women, actual hardcore porn, and a Russian soldier being blown to pieces in Ukraine, should not occupy the same "NSFW" tag...

    Of course there's going to be grey area stuff, but 3 buckets like this is much much better than a single "everything people might not want to see" bucket.

    But all the sfw porn subs ruined it.

    Need a new tag like “sexporn” or “genitals”

    I think sfw porn is still porn. If we're being honest, it's not sfw either

    I feel like the lines at that point get way too blurred. It would be like having a "porn" and "full blown porn" tag or hardcore versus softcore.

    I will admit a distinct NSFW tag could be good for somewhat taboo stuff like mildly offensive jokes for example.

    Would be kind of hilarious. You can have one normal tag like "serious" is for ask lemmy, then a million tags like soft core, forced, NSFL, etc...

    Like the fediverse would be catering to SO MUCH PORN at that point

    What if we just had specific tags that we could filter for. everything gets the nsfw tag but we have specific tags for nudity, violence, etc.

    I'm not sure my concern would still be blurred lines and people either forgetting to use tags or not realizing how or when to use them. For example a news article about police violence getting tagged with the violence tag on some instances but not others.

    I'm also opposed to auto or over moderation and I feel like it's one of those things that could potentially push Lemmy in that direction eventually.

    How do you actually find porn on Lemmy? I've tried and failed.

    Apparently lemmynsfw.com.

    But it's mostly celebrity pics, so I'm not entirely sure where else.

    You're only seeing celebrity pics because that is the only SFW community on lemmynsfw. By default most lemmy instances hide NSFW posts unless you're logged in with an account set to show NSFW. They are running 0.18.3-nsfwpatch, so if you navigate there directly you will see everything, but viewing lemmynsfw logged out from another instance will only show you celebrity pictures.

    I have NSFW Content enabled but I still am not seeing the porn (I'm on lemm.ee)

    NSFW is an American construct, in Europe people don't get scared by nudity. If Lemmy is truly worldwide, we can get rid of it.

    This and also

    • politics or religious
    • dull stuff like sports

    By "porn", I suppose you mean nudity?

    At this point just have a tag system and let people vote on tags. It's a great way to get to reddit-like niche content curation at smaller acale across many smaller instances.
