After a week of blocking every porn sub I see I’m feeling defeated

You can also go in your lemmy profile and check that you want to hide all NSFW posts.

Just make an account on a server that doesn't federate porn. Lemmy.ml or midwest.social don't.

Lemmygrad doesn't either, but it's understandable if it's not for you.

This is how I feel blocking sports too.

You’re posting in the Memmy community. This feature has been added, at least on the TestFlight version.

I'm on lemmy.world using connect and I haven't seen a single porn post? I wonder why we are having such different experiences.

I also am on kbin.social, and I do not even have the "Hide NSFW content" turned on, and I almost never see it. I haven't had to block anything (maybe once?), and in the <1/1000 chance it pops up, it is blurred by default.

It can randomly show up in the Active People area though.

Lemmy/Kbin is a wild, uncharted frontier, still alpha version software and very much in active development, it does not just "take care of people" like Reddit and Twitter did - you may want to not browse it at work then. Also, even if you successfully blocked every single porn magazine, as you see a new one could come up and blow up your entire All feed at any point in time -> that approach was never going to be 100% successful.

So it may be worth the pain of switching to Kbin, b/c that will work? Note that you will lose everything that way - account migration is something promised but not yet implemented iirc - but you can still see all of the communities you subscribed to before, from the new server (you will just have to subscribe to all of them again, plus block all the others, like I unsub from every foreign-language one that I see).

lemmy.blahaj.zone has defederated from lemmy.nsfw if you don't mind changing instances. The local tab has a lot of queer content tho if you're not into that (but you can just ignore that tab and use All or Subscribed, of course).

Wait until the weebs come here, and you have to block every subreddit for every character for every anime ever released.

Man idk what people are doing or if it's because I am on lemmy.ml but man I never see or hardly ever porn communities. And I don't have it blocked.

EDIT: It seems one of the rules of lemmy.ml is "No Porn" so I am gonna guess that that's why. I mean that would apply to their communities but I guess they might be blocking the ones from other communities that have porn aswell.

It needs to be easier to block those communities.

I hate having to tap into a community in order to block it. If I don’t wanna see that shit, I definitely don’t want to have to see MORE of it in order to block it.

We should be able to long press on a post or community name from the main feed, and be able to block the community from that popup menu.

Been gone for a few days but I am back. We have added filtering of whole instances so you'll be able to do this now.

I...haven't seen a single one. Is this a Lemmy thing? I'm on Kbin.social.

Why not just change the instance you’re a member of. A number of them have a no porn policy, so it all gets filtered at the instance level.

There's literally a toggle in the account settings that toggles whether you see nsfw posts lol

Agreed. It’s too much fucking porn. It just clogs up the feed. If I want to look at porn I’m not going to look at pictures; this isn’t the 90s.

We need a way to filter all of this shit out.

i thought it was kinda silly when reddit blocked porn from the all & popular but holy shit do i appreciate it now. i’ve never seen my feed as bad as this. i’m getting so much that i will have 2-3 posts in a row from the same community.

I only view subscribed.

Have you tried crying like a little bitch?

Access the 'verse from KBIN, no porn in the feeds, at all, like civilized folk/ Fuck Lemmy.
