I am rather annoyed having just come here.

All I see is porn, every kind imagineable it seems. And most isn’t marked as Nsfw. This make this site very unappealing to me as I can’t just scroll info in public without looking like a creep.

I’m not against porn in general, it’s just too much of it.

Can we get some content going?

I have yet to see any porn.

Me neither. I mean you really gotta go looking for it. Maybe that’s all he seeing because that’s all he’s looking for?

To be fair, I have NSFW blocked on the web and in each app I use. I don’t subscribe to any communities that would include that type of content.

If you change the filter from “Subscribed” or “Local” to “All”, there definitely is some.

I’m on All 90% of the time (sorting by New) on wefwef.app or Liftoff and I very rarely see porn. I even made an account on lemmynswf just to see some. For research, of course.

Turn off nsfw in your profile. I really don’t see porn much unless I seek it out.

Are you in the “All” view? You could go to your “Subscribed” view and then you’ll only see content from the communities you have deliberately chosen to follow.

Another (somewhat tedious) option is to go to the sidebar of the community of the offending posts and click “block community”. That should hide that entire community from any of your views.

That’s exactly the solution I have employed. Just block commute cities constantly.

Not to be high maintenance, I just like searching all. That way I find all sorts of new communities to join and keep up on new things.

I just wish the porn in my feed was, just… Less.

As people have said, check your settings and make sure you’ve turned off nsfw. I see zero porn anywhere, including when searching All. If you aren’t using one of the Lemmy apps, too, I would look into those - that might make a difference as well since you can kinds of fine tune settings on some.

Yes, especially now in the beginning when we haven’t found our favorites yet, “All” is the place to go for discovery.

What app are you using? Liftoff has a hide nfsw function.

Yes, I have it set to blur Nsfw.

But that just leads to many blurred posts, and like I said, most aren’t even tagged as Nsfw.

I don’t want to have to avoid all Nsfw, just the constant nudity that is gratuitous at this point.

I have been blocking communities since I started.
