I agree. Unfortunately NSFW doesn’t mean not safe for work. It means porn.
If I could use a “mildly suggestive” tag, I would.
Marking something that isn’t porn NSFW to avoid offending a small subset of users, hides that same content from an orders of magnitude larger number who would want to see the content.
Nevermind that NSFW is a nebulous threshold that varies around the globe, and is hence a useless tool where controlling what you do and don’t see online is concerned.
I’d love to filter out porn from my feed by just disabling nsfw content on an account level, but I can’t, because people like you would have a bunch of other stuff thrown out with it.
Again I see your viewpoint, but I would still say that this is pretty much mild porn, which would mean that it is Not Safe For Work. Imagine you being at your job on break and your co-worker saw you looking at that image, they would definitely tell other people that you look at porn at work.
But it is your post and I see your viewpoint so I don’t wanna argue about it anymore. It is a very nice and well done image tho!
I don’t typically browse lemmy in a way where someone could see over my shoulder. (using thumbnail modes where I have to very deliberately go fullscreen for any images, I do this because I can’t block actual porn as a bunch of the content I do want to see would go with it)
This isn’t unusual. I’ve used this very image, and even more arousing art, as my desktop and phone wallpapers. My city has public art installations featuring both male and female nudity.
I WANT to be able to tag content accordingly. Because I myself would like better control over my feed. Luckily Lemmy divides things into communities and instances. By subbing and blocking accordingly we can all very precisely curate our feeds.
NSFW tagging has an literal implied use case, for which it is effectively useless. It isn’t how it is actually used, and is hence a wildly inaccurate way to exclude anything. Sensibilities vary, as to me this is less than what public art shows, and to you its porn.
Yes, I get your point, but I would not like to argue with you anymore. It is your post and your choice and if you think that this post like this is correct, then it is correct.
I hope you have a good day/evening MentalEdge and maybe we’ll communicate again (hopefully not argue).

No they wouldn’t.
