I’m up to 92 so far. A mix of non English, furry and hentai porn, and a few I just don’t see the point of. I’ve got 6 or 7 users to, mostly bots that repost reddit content, and the piped link bot.

79 so far. If we could just block instances it would be so much better. OR if we had a distinction between NSFW porn and NSFW non porn. I just don’t want porn in all, but I want to be able to discover new communities. And I don’t want to block all NSFW because I enjoy some content that is marked as NSFW…I just don’t want porn.

I’m ok with the porn, I just want to avoid the furry shit. Titties? Sure. An anime fox fucking another anime fox? No thanks.

I would like to see a more finely grained nsfw filter. It could have categories like

  • nudity
  • hardcore porn
  • gore
  • violence

Uhh that’s all I can think of right now. Sometimes I like porn but I pretty much never want to see gore.

Yep, I got the same issue with blocking communities. It would be so much simpler to simply block pornlemmy and lemmynsfw than to block the myriad of communities that pop up

I don’t mind some of the porn. I can just scroll by it when I’m not interested in it.

I’m sure a user based block instance will show up in Lemmy at some point.

I don’t mind the porn either, but not on my main accounts on lemmy.ca and lemmy.world

There’s a whole yiff instance with various yiff communities. I think I may have finally gotten them all.

The connect app has the ability to block instances, which I find very helpful.

It’s a fantastic feature, but the app just does not work well for me

I had problems in the past where Connect would not populate random certain communities in my subscriptions, making it unusable as an app.

But I just redownloaded it and it appears to work now so I may play with this a bit more!

Edit: Wait nope. Now it seems to randomly glitch out often and delete ALL of my subscriptions. Maybe even worse than before…

I want some stuff from lemmynsfw, just not furry or hentai. There is a yiff instance I wouldn’t mind blocking, but Liftoff doesn’t have instance blocking yet and that’s the app I prefer.

I’m already blocking one user after roughly one month here.

He was in so many comment sections posting the same gif of a woman shitting.

Allowing users to post gifs was a mistake.

Is this the troll in sh.itjust.works? Thankfully all their stuff has been taken down before I’ve seen it

I don’t remember the user . They’d just show up and respond to a top comment with that gif.

So glad you can block individual accounts.

It was ok when there’s only a few memes but it got old when it’s every other post on “new”.

I’d really like a feature to block communities by name match. Something like block all with a name that contains “meme” would be ideal.
