An option to hide anime content
An option to hide anime content
I would love an option to hide all anime content just like we can hide NSFW content.

How exactly would that work? Or, perhaps more specifically, how would the app know whats anime and whats not? muting and blocking the communities yourself would be far easier IMO.
-
I guess maybe keyword filtering?
-
Y'know, I forgot about keywords. I suppose that would work as long as everyone actually tags key words correctly and does so diligently. Or else I dont think there are enough context clues in the titles alone to properly filter out enough of the anime to be worthwhile.

Wrong way of asking it.
"Option to tag anime content" and let people choose if they want to hide it or see every post with that tag.
I'd add more tags (politics, sports, ...) but...
-
Lemmy devs are currently working on including hashtags in every post that are set by the community they're posted in. So all posts within c/formula1 could have the hashtags "formula1" and "motorsport", for example. Then muting/hiding by hashtags could be a possibility.

You've gotta block the communities yourself. I feel your pain, but what you're requesting isn't going to happen.
Every time I come across an anime community, I block it. But there are so many that keep popping up...
My block list is filled with so many anime, furry, and shitposting communities. It's a bit annoying and an uphill battle, but you've got to go to their communities and block them individually (but also block the anime instances).
-
NSFW tags are built into Lemmy and therefore it's possible to turn that off (whether using Boost, another client, or simply the web front-end). There's no anime tag, so you're basically asking for some kind of chatgpt-esque automagic detection of your disfavored content to filter it out.
Much easier to either block what you aren't interested in from all, or curate what you DO want to see via subscribed, no?
-
I’m happy with just blocking channels with content I don’t want to see rather than use any nsfw etc type filters. Seems to be tuning things well after a week of blocking.
-
Boost has features already available to block various communities and sites. As much as I would like to see Lemmy implement and enforce a robust tagging system like some sites were probably never going to have that.
You could also probably minimize your exposure by blocking the Japanese character set and popular sites such as pixiv, deviantart, *booru and catbox. But anime is mainstream now, just look at McDonald's clever advertising scheme.
But if you would like to pioneer that feature, I would suggest posting your feature request to lemmy's GitHub since this is a bit beyond the ability of a client. And perhaps learn a new skill and implement that feature yourself.

You could probably just block ani.social and that be it. Im already in talks with the owner of touchfluffytail to move it there for that very reason actually
-
You're asking a single community to move to ani.social so that it will be affected by your instance block? Am I reading that right? Why not just block it separately?
-
As a mod for that community I can assure you thats not even the main reason. Thing simply is it doesn't fit with lemmy.world. ani.social is the place where a community like this not only fits but also would do a lot better in the long term. It would also help with debloating lemmy.world as its already way too big for its own good. Couple all that with not spamming local, moving to ani.social has been long overdo

Have Boost block every third post, that would probably get most of it. /s
