... or you can just block lemmynsfw.com

The NSFW blur is sometimes not applied correctly. For example if you have turned on displaying Avatars (or Magazine icons) then those elements are blurred instead of the post preview itself - at least that's my experience on Vivaldi browser. Styling might be interpreted differently on other browsers. And sometimes it takes a second to apply the style (I think after page reload) so if it's high up there on the list one might still see NSFW content unblured.

This needs to be top comment!

if you have previews on. The little wide thumbnail is blurred. And then right below the full image loads in full screen un-blurred.

Is it possible to have separate nsfw tags for nudity Vs gore or is all gore supposed to be tagged nsfl instead. Because that was something I thought Reddit should have had different, if you turn off nsfw, you miss alot of things that are '18+' that aren't nudity. If that makes any sense.

Given that folks are saying the main source is an instance called lemmynsfw.com, perhaps it would be useful to have an option to set an entire instance as having that flag? I'm foreseeing a future where instances tend to be subject-specific so something like that seems like it'd be pretty handy.

Several people here are saying that the bulk of it is coming from lemmynsfw. If so then it may well be best to defederate in the short term to buy time for a better solution (like marking everything from there NSFW automatically, either by a lemmy enhancement on their end or a kbin enhancement here)

Do you have plans on adding another admin to help with moderation?

For the all page or other curated pages that have suggested content and not handpicked content like subscribed I would recommend blocking those NSFW pages. Obviously people can view it if they want, but blasting it in a new users face could easily turn them away if they aren’t expecting it. Personally I would also go far enough to prevent anything not on kbin from showing on those pages at all. Ya, there’s tons of good content but searching isn’t completely obvious to new users yet so the people looking for federated content are not going to overlap with those only browsing all by very much.

Just my opinions is all

You already can mark entire subs as NSFW. I think the problem is that a bunch of folks created subs that weren't marked as such.

Though with federation, it's always hard to say just what features other people have. I only personally verified that kbin lets you mark subs as NSFW, but someone told me Lemmy does, too.

I've seen some business type posts on microblogs but I think they're coming from mastodon instances.

I can not find how to do that! I see in my profile there is a “domains” under blocked, but it’s empty and I can’t see how to add one. Where can I find block for a domain?

How do I do that? Under the federation tab and add the instance?

Is there a way to block the domain entirely in kbin? Or did you have to do it through a browser extension?

I think defederating may be knee jerk at this stage? Beehaw seems to have defederated because they vet users and are worried about unvetted users flooding their service; that's a fundamental community position rather than a fediverse issue. In this case it's more about tags not being applied correctly and how to improve that process (e.g. automation based on server or community posted to).

Defederating or blocking specific instances/servers seems like it should be a last resort - e.g. if a service is lax about moderation or refuses to deal with issues then it makes sense.

I mean you can do it yourself. I turned federation status off for me to get a feel for kbin, interact here and see whats on here. If I get bored I might turn it back on and see what's happening in other places.

This is good imo. Let the user decide what they want to see.

I disagree. I really think closing ourselves off to a bunch of places goes against the spirit of the fediverse. I want to be getting content from a lot of places which I can then filter out and control myself, and I feel like kbin supports that mindset well. I understand why some would want to defederate and close themselves off, but I don't want kbin.social turning into beehaw. If you're looking for a more controlled instance, join them

These platforms are still pretty early in their infancy and I don't think they were quite mature enough to take on this sudden influx of users (through no fault of anyone). There's going to be some growing pains but we'll get through it and this platform will get better from it

kbin allows you to disable federation on your front end and also to block specific domains if you so wish. I assume the philosophy for now is to handle it on a per-user basis.

I don't want kbin to blanked ban adult content. There's filters for exactly that reason if you don't want to see it. If that's not enough, then go to beehaw or other highly restrictive instances.

I've blocked a NSFW server where stuff was untagged

Feel like lemmynsfw should be an opt-in - like I have no problem seeing some “NSFW” content in my feed, by the standards a lot of people impose that like… on Reddit, cigars and drugs and other things that don’t offend me at all are marked NSFW so by default I want to allow some NSFW content… I just don’t want to see porn, I go to pornhub for that. Last thing I want is a constant stream of people advertising their onlyfans accounts.

And if admins set the default to nfsw?

This is where lemmy is better. You can block the whole community and after a couple days most of the content you don't like will be filtered out.

Adult content IS invisible by default, assuming it is properly tagged as such. In the meantime you can block certain magazines / communities that don't adhere to that individually as well.

Yeah, I was comparing notes with someone from another lemmy based server earlier, and was finding the same thing. Some posts that were marked as nfsw came over as such, but quite a number came over as clear.
