NSFW content not blurred in preview

My apologies if this is posted twice, my first attempt has disappeared.

I have blurring enabled in my settings but as the attached image shows, the nsfw picture in the link preview is not blurred. I’m not sure if this is new functionality, I just haven’t seen it before.

  • Sorry, I noticed this post a little late. I usually get notifications for new posts here, but I believe I was doing maintenance on the notification server when you posted this.

    Anyway, it looks like you figured this out already. I would love to include an option to toggle this account setting in Arctic, however it goes against the AppStore regulations. I’m allowed to have a toggle for client side filtering and blurring, but not for changing the account setting. I’ll see about adding a status message in settings to notify users if NSFW content is disabled on their account.

    • The thing is, even with blurring and not showing nsfw, that preview image was not blurred. I understand about account settings not all being available.

      Thank you for all your hard work on this app! 💙

      • Sorry, it was late when I replied and I didn’t notice exactly what you were referring to. I got sidetracked by the post not showing for you.

        This is about the link preview in the post not being blurred. This is not exactly a bug. The issue with blurring content in comments is that there is no way to mark a comment or a link as NSFW on Lemmy. What I could do is add an option to blur all links and images in comments on NSFW posts. To be honest, I hadn’t really thought of this scenario before.

        • Yeah I figured it was probably more trouble than it was worth. It hadn’t occurred to me either, I was very surprised to see it. You could maybe blur anything that has nsfw in the community name or in the url, but meh, I more wanted to throw this out there than anything. :)
