That’s probably not a long-term fix as a way to filter out NSFW content from yourself on kbin.social, because presumably people can simply make more magazines at lemmynsfw.com.

Not to mention that presumably people can start up other instances that provide NSFW content and kbin.social would normally federate with them too.

Kbin does apparently provide you with the ability to not see federated content entirely, but then you’re cutting off everything that doesn’t originate on on kbin.social.

Another point – an issue that was raised in the RFC on the proposed .sex TLD some years back:

https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3675

was that moral and legal norms are not constant across the world.

When it comes to sexually-explicit material, every person, court, and government has a different view of what’s acceptable and what is not. Attitudes change over time, and what is viewed as appropriate in one town or year may spark protests in the next. When faced with the slippery nature of what depictions of sexual activity should be illegal or not, one U.S. Supreme Court justice blithely defined obscenity as: “I know it when I see it”.

In the U.S.A., obscenity is defined as explicit sexual material that, among other things, violates “contemporary community standards” – in other words, even at the national level, there is no agreed-upon rule governing what is illegal and what is not. Making matters more knotty is that there are over 200 United Nations country codes, and in most of them, political subdivisions can impose their own restrictions. Even for legal nude modeling, age restrictions differ. They’re commonly 18 years of age, but only 17 years of age in one Scandinavian country. A photographer there conducting what’s viewed as a legal and proper photo shoot would be branded a felon and child pornographer in the U.S.A. In yet other countries and groups, the entire concept of nude photography or even any photography of a person in any form may be religiously unacceptable.

Saudi Arabia, Iran, Northern Nigeria, and China are not likely to have the same liberal views as, say, the Netherlands or Denmark. Saudi Arabia and China, like some other nations, extensively filter their Internet connection and have created government agencies to protect their society from web sites that officials view as immoral. Their views on what should be included in a .sex domain would hardly be identical to those in liberal western nations.

Those wildly different opinions on sexual material make it inconceivable that a global consensus can ever be reached on what is appropriate or inappropriate for a .sex or .adult top-level domain. Moreover, the existence of such a domain would create an irresistible temptation on the part of conservative legislators to require controversial publishers to move to that domain and punish those who do not.

That is, even if one assumes that people, with perfect consistency, flag their content, a single “restricted to adults” or not bit of information indicating something as NSFW everywhere in the fediverse, that won’t solve things for Iran, where laws may prohibit blasphemy. Nor will it properly deal with communications spanning the US and Canada, where the legal systems have different takes on the permissability of cartoon depictions of child pornography.
