Weird. I don’t see much of that at all, even on “All”. I guess it depends on what instance you join.
Did your instance defederate lemmynsfw.com? It shows up quite a bit on my “all” feed.
Sorry for the late reply. It’s been a busy couple of weeks. I double-checked and it isn’t defederated. I think maybe no one had ever looked up content from the server before so it wasn’t showing up. It hadn’t federated yet. Now that I’ve pulled in posts with a search, I might have opened the floodgate. LOL.
I guess they haven’t discovered the button to block communities?
My feed is quite nice after blocking the stuff that doesn’t appeal to me.
Same. Block is a key feature. That said, I’m actually fascinated at how many furry communities there are. You’d think blocking c/furry would take care of 90% of the problem, but who knew c/MidCenturyYiffsOnAnEamesChair had such a dedicated following.
Zoomers gonna zoom
E: Apparently zoomers can’t take a joke. Get over yourselves nerds
I don’t think it’s a bad thing that people complain about problematic viewpoints, even if they can block them.
Being a furry is a problematic viewpoint?
Some people might actually think that and I find that hilarious
The problem is that there are so many porn communities that I have to block one every time I open Lemmy.
Create two accounts, one with NSFW content turned off, and one with it on.
That sucks just as much lol
Why’s that? I’ve been using a separate account for porn on reddit for over a decade. It’s the only way to go imo
That’s why we need some 3rd party apps to make swapping amounts seamless.
Voyager does this pretty well.
Memmy
You could just browse your subscribed communities instead of All.
Problem is that the website and clients never remember that I want Subscribed to be the default.
You can change that in your profile settings, and I’d imagine most apps as well.
I know, problem is that this is never remembered and is reset back to All every time.
Do you delete/prevent cookies? If not then idk,
works on my machine
I’m so confused by posts like this. I see very little porn stuff on /all/. How are so many others seeing it everywhere?
Some instances block it
You can also hide the NSFW content entirely, but some people are never happy.
I’d like to block entire servers myself. But I can’t find a way to block the whole nsfw one. Individual communities yes, but I’d like to not see the whole server.
Just move to an instance that has defederated from major nsfw instances.
It would be nice if there was a directory that made it clear what server has defederated what.
Fragmentation and the lack of continuity and good navigation is seriously going to be what kills any chance a federated Reddit alternative has at becoming even 25% as large as Reddit was.
You can see what an instance has defederated by adding /instances to the URL of the instance. There’s no way to see it for more than one instance (at a time) as far as I know, so yeah, have to agree with you.
Some phone apps do not support that feature. Couldn’t find it in Memmy for Lemmy for example, so I bounced.
You can of course always do it through the web interface.
Memmy has it. Tap the community name and then the three dots in the top right. “Block community” will pop up as an option.
I’ve been using it to block Anime/Manga/Hentai communities as fast as they make ‘em. It’s never-ending with that stuff.
Reddit refuge here. I’m super sad to see people trying to turn lemmy into reddit, this is our chance to make it better. Stop filling the new feed with reddit archive bullshit.
Secondly, I’m fine with the porn. I miss scrolling r/all and getting the surprise boob. Surprise boobs are the best.
Although I will say the furry community on lemmy is fierce. I’ve blocked like 40 communities and I’m still getting dog dicks in my feed. How many different communities do you people need?
You’ve been getting dog dicks? If they’re drawn and attached a human like beast, that’s us and I’m sorry. If they’re like, not that? That’s not us, fuck those people.
I have show NSFW content and have yet to see any.
Go to lemmynsfw instance
Pornography? On the instance dedicated to pornography? Shocking.
I want more communism
Me who never get porn contents on my feed :()
Those are probably just newbies. My Reddit account is about 12 years old, and Lemmy right now reminds me of the good days of Reddit. It’s ramping up that way.
I think it’s great. Read about philosophy, memes, and get the occasional booba in-between. It’s good Internetting.
Reminds me of old school slashdot. A mix of techies, skeptics and libertarians. Luckily, the Demon Haunted World quotes stuck over the Ayn Rand junk. Last time I went on slashdot, it seems the libertarians took over. Never thought I’d see anti vaxxers there.
I almost forgot about Slashdot! Gosh, that was decent back in the day. I remember unsubscribing from their email newsletter years ago, after I noticed a consistent trend in topics being unfavourable to my ethos.
Slashdot was great and then I remember after DICE bought them they lost originality and the comments were just people meta complaining. Same feeling as you about the ethos change. Felt greasy at the end of my time there.
Wait… How am I missing out on all this NSFW content? I’m just seeing Linux and Star Trek memes, somebody help me find the titties!
I’m pretty sure most of it is on the lemmynsfw instance, which some instances have defederated with out of either prudishness or a ridiculous notion that all porn is inherently exploitative. Maybe you’re on one of those? 🤷
Accord to https://status.lemm.ee, lemm.ee is federated with lemmynsfw and I even personally sub to a couple lemmynsfw communities. I also have NSFW enabled and unblurred in settings, and still I never see porn unless I actively seek it out. I want surprise titties, goddamn it!
Damn, that sucks. Maybe if you use a lemmy client that lets you mark communities as favorites you’ll be more likely to have some thrown into your feed now and then?
I’m using Thunder, which has that. Can’t say for sure how effective it is yet, though, as I only found out the day before yesterday and haven’t done any measured testing…
Hey, I don’t love my client yet, so I’m down to check out Thunder. Thanks for the recommendation, whether it ends up not helping me find my sought-after surprise titties or not 👍
No problem 😁
That’s rich, especially since Communism and Porn are EXTREMELY common on Reddit.
Unless you were on explicitly communist subs, reddit was extremely hostile to communists. You could definitely get banned from some subs just by association.
Porn was everywhere though, yeah.
I never saw porn on Reddit though I suppose it was there.
But “communism”? Wtf are you talking about? Like actual 1950s style red scare stuff? Lol
Nah, Americans just mistake subsidized healthcare and prohibitive gun laws as actual communism
Lol, I had to ask.
It’s pretty rude to come into a new community and the first thing you do is complain. Not everyone is as obsessed with avoiding communist thoughts as much as US-Americans. Deal with it. As for NSFW: just switch it off.
Oh how quickly redditors forgot that r/all was packed full of porn not so long ago…
Wait what the fuck is that nsfw content in my feed? All I get is beans and poop… and I even have nsfw checked under my profile.
Hilarious considering they are reddit refugees explicitly because of capitalism and the insatisble greed it stokes.
Honestly, if I was a capitalism defender, I’d go to Threads to be monetized by Zuck, but since I know zuck is a capitalist I know any niceties provided today will be pay/ad walled if the platform becomes popular the next time Zuck wants to stoke his quarterly growth/metastasis estimates.
There is no safe harbor to be had putting your faith in capitalists, only exploitation in the name of sociopathic, unquenchable greed. It’s never enough, and when the chips are down and you participate, it will be taken out of your ass sooner or later.
It would be lovely if the capitalism cheerleaders could learn this through experience, but they never seem to, even after getting their ass kicked by it. Unless you hold significant capital (if you have to ask how much you need, you are not), you are not a capitalist, you are the capitalist’s livestock.
This has less to do with liking capitalism than it does with self-avowed communists on the internet being insufferable.
Oh no, the open source community who worked together to create a great ecosystem for free and fto the benefit of all, in the face of data greedy capitalists are commies!
Save me from these sexy FOSS anticapitalists
Exactly. I legitimately long for an actual leftist space which isn’t just edgy anti-western brain rot. I want to actually discuss theory and praxis and statecraft with people who can actually acknowledge that obsessive Chinese autocracy should be condemned as harshly as western imperialism. Unfortunately, my experience on Lemmy has once again demonstrated that this is impossible.
It might help your case if you’re more specific about such “praxis” and what you mean by “obsessive Chinese autocracy”
You know, a place where people don’t unironically talk about shooting social democrats who won’t swear fealty to Stalin. Or who can acknowledge that China’s nearly complete lack of public trials is alarming.
I feel like these should be super low bars, yet…
I’m not informed enough to respond. I personally haven’t seen discussion of this on Lemmygrad.
Ant’s eye view: I’m here because my app stopped working 😂
In our feeds, comrade.
What subs are they subscribed to? I see none of those 2 on lemmy.ml (unless I would specifically search for it)
