I would like to filter out all the porn posts without blocking all of NSFW posts. I like porn as much as the next guy, but every other post I see is porn. I’ve been blocking the individual communities, but that doesn’t stop anything. Is there specific keywords to use or is it just all NSFW or no NSFW?
Lemmy REALLY needs a distinction between porn nsfw and non-porn nsfw.
A
xxx
&nsfw
tags? Orxsfw
instead ofxxx
? And maybe even ansfl
tag for those that are more than just not safe for work.Maybe we could mature and move past these “not safe for” things and just use clear labels.
The whole use of “NSFW” has always bugged me. The common use cases are broad, and it implies weird things by specifying work.
I ended up blocking all NSFW stuff because I very rarely had anything that was non-porn related on my feed such as nsfw news, nsfw memes, etc.
At least this way I can still discover new communities without porn being in every other post.
Don’t subscribe to those communities and use the subscribed view.
I like local because it helps me find new communities I might be interested in. Just filtering by subscribed kind of closes you off to things.
I do that by periodically browsing the community list. I suppose you could toggle the NSFW filter manually when switching from one to the other.
I don’t know why I didn’t think of that. That’s a good idea
Fwiw, lemmyverse.net is a way better community browser than the one built into a Lemmy instance, which often is missing tons of communities.
My experience is that browsing lemmyverse, I find WAY more interesting stuff than what pops up on the all/local feeds, which is generally dominated by “frontpage” style mass-appeal communities that are very general and memey. All the communities I enjoy the most are too small to make the scroll and were find explicitly by searching. I now enjoy my subscribed feed much more than all/local.
