The Fediverse should do what redditors have always wanted and Reddit Inc. has always refused to do; Distinguish between NSFW and NSFL.

Not Safe for Work versus Not Safe for Life?
I think content warnings would be a better approach to this, all other fediverse software have content warnings anyway. Making community content to force use content warnings would be helpful too.
i agree, use of cw would be more useful because ’nsfw’ is just too vague and not specific enough.
Porn vs gore
Not safe for lemmy
Lol even I thought it's not safe for life and was wondering what's that about
Life is correct, NSFW is just something risqué or something that has bad language that you shouldn't look at at work, but NSFL is like gore or something disgusting or terrible that you shouldn't look at EVER, ANYWHERE unless you're desensitized lol
NSFL can fuck with your head and might come back to haunt you.
OK thanks for the explanation. Now the difference between both makes sense to me.
Not safe for looking. Gore, usually.
I've never once heard it called "Not Safe for Looking".
Thats like a few years ago when my wife said she thought LOL was "Lots of Love".
Just provide the alt tag
I could swear back in the 00s it started as Not Safe for Landing but I couldn't find anything to back that up when I checked
Interesting. I've never heard that one either, but perhaps. These things evolve.
Al Gore?
