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.

I only browse on my subscribed list, so I don't really see it much

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.

Connect for Lemmy has a block instances feature. No idea how well it works though

Lemmynsfw is the biggest reason I’m on here.

Social media for anything else is just toxic, so other than niche things, I get most of my news from news sites now (that way I don’t have to see all the awful comments that just infuriate me).

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

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.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I never get these, is it because I don't browse all?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Yup, that's why - if you're on Subscribed you'll only ever see posts from communities you subscribed to. Or even if you're on local, you won't see any content from other instances like lemmynsfw.com.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I've been able to ban whole instances with Connect for Lemmy and hide nsfw. Made the browsing a lot more enjoyable

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Could you please share your complete list so I too can block these disgusting NSFW instances?

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

What are you browsing with? Connect on Android has an option to block instances.

I have NSFW posts disabled anyway

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago
[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah man, same boat. I actually do have NSFW disabled, but I've still blocked at least a dozen or two lemmynsfw communities for actresses, celebs, gentlemenboners, ladyboners, ladyladyboners, just a metric ton of SFW porn communities.

Would make things so much easier if I could outright block the instance, and heck, maybe I'd even turn on NSFW in that case.

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

None, but I browser by "Subscribed" instead of "all"

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've been working on all the 'yiff' shit myself. Just the word, I fucking hate it, and seeing the art is even worse.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I've seen a lot of people complaining about that too, but it hasn't really showed up on my All page: Only one of my blocked communities has "yiff" anywhere in its name

I browse mainly subscriptions, so I didn't see them

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children)

Probably a similar amount, it’ll just take time I guess before all the stuff I want to see is getting posted enough. I have a separate acct specifically for lemmynsfw, on this acct I actually don’t see any nsfw stuff. The problem is that my Subscribed list feels too barren, there’s not enough stuff getting posted or maybe I haven’t found all the communities I might be interested in. So I sort by All, which has quite a bit of stuff I’m not interested in at all, so I block that stuff. Eventually I’m assuming the two lines will cross paths and I can just switch over to my Subscribed list full-time. Until then I’ll just have to fight through waves of concerning porn until I can find my totally vanilla deviancies.

Mostly furry porn.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I have 238 blocked communities. ~3/4 porn, 1/4 sports, gaming, and non-English. I don't really want to block the instance as i kind of like to see the community titles. It's like a weird name competition. Winners are currently hentaibdsm and dangleandjiggle.

None. I just don't browse All.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I do not browse nsfw communities, yet I use lemmynsfw as my main server lol

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.

I'm blocking some bots and a bunch of porn. I didn't block porn on Reddit, just scrolled past the few posts but with less content there is more porn in my way. I'm not worried about it being there in general I guess.

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

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I've blocked all the dicks but there are quite a few really tasteless pussy upclose ones that I blocked as well. The ai porn is absolute s tier quality though. I guess I'm more into artistic nudity than hardcore porn. I. Do. Not. Want. To. See. Upclose shots of genitals or buttholes.

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

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.

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

No idea, since it seems Jerboa doesn't show the list anywhere, but it's probably a couple dozen, all non-English communitues.
