Blocking NSFW Question (lemm.ee)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

9 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I’ve been blocking porn communities on this account (I have another account for all that). Every time I block one I get the option to either block all NSFW or only the community. Does blocking all NSFW just block NSFW communities, or will it block all NSFW content? I don’t want to randomly have porn in my feed, but I don’t want to block posts that might be NSFW for other reasons.

Now the word block looks weird, I’ve written it to many times

This is something I was experimenting with, because a lot of people were block porn communities when maybe they'd just be fine blocking all NSFW on that account.

But yeah, blocking porn != blocking nsfw, and I could see how it could be annoying. We can remove this functionality if people prefer.

A way to just block “adult” NSFW would be huge

Instance block would go a long way too

I think it’s a pretty handy feature than I’m sure is helpful for plenty of people. I will probably use it on another account so I have a completely safe account to browse at work. But it would also be nice to differentiate porn from NSFW, and to be able to block entire instances.

Thanks for replying, I love your app!

I’d think two options would be best. One to block all NSFW and one to block just porn. If the latter isn’t possible, maybe a way to block whole instances, since almost all of the porn communities I’ve seen are on lemmynsfw

It would also help if we could block a community from the main feed. I've blocked a few communities that I don't like today, and I've had to go into each one to do it.

In my case, they've been normal communities that I just don't like, but having to go into a NSFW community to block it seems wrong.

Separate to this conversation though, I'm really enjoying the app so far, it's great, thanks :)
