How is a fediverse user supposed to find communities? I can’t find a way to search across the fediverse, which pretty much kills the concept IMO. I was browsing All via Lemmy.world - Mlem - iOS and my feed is half anime porn, with some pictures depicting underage and others not blurred as NSFW.
Am I going about the fediverse all wrong? How do y’all deal with this? Right now the fediverse seems like a glitchy, overcomplicated 4chan.
My block list for anime/nsfw is getting ridiculous
Someone should create a masterlist of nsfw communities and create anotherscript that blocks them lul
Being able to block instances as a user (not defed but just hide all their communities) would be helpful
Theres a few specific ones I am constantly blocking communities from (nsfw/porn, anime, furry, sports)
I totally don’t have that problem on kbin. I can also just view my subbed “Magazines”.
Do you use an app to browse kbin on ios? I couldn’t get wefwef to take my Kbin account.
On iOS, you can just use Safari, and “add kbin to home screen.” This creates a shortcut to kbin on your home screen, but it also allows you to use kbin like an app. The website has an amazing UI through safari that feels like a native app you purchased in the App Store. I’ll attach a screenshot to this comment for you to see.
Thank you — this is what I’ve been doing for the past couple of days. I still think there’s a need for an app… this browser stuff is glitchy. It logs me out automatically, I can’t add multiple accounts, my keyboard loads all funky sometimes, and media needs to be manually expanded.
Two things you can do: disable being shown nsfw altogether, and browse communities that exist to help you find communities (like !newcommunities@lemmy.world )
I’ve been using Connect for Lemmy for a few days now and it helped me a lot with finding instances I wanted to follow.
You could try finding an instance that isn’t porn-friendly. The one I’m currently using (https://dmv.social) asks users not to subscribe to any NSFW communities, which prevents those communities from showing up in my All feed.
