I recently was scrolling through my All feed and noticed some NSFW content on lemmynsfw.com. It was blurred but I wasn’t expecting it. What do you all think of this? Should we continue to federate with some NSFW instances? I’m personally OK with it as long as the content is blurred unless I click on it but wanted to get your opinions on it.
Edit: Completely forgot about the NSFW settings that everyone has. We’ll continue federating with NSFW instances going forward.
While I am not seeking NSFW content, I’m not offended by it. Nice to know I can adjust my own settings accordingly. ツ
Defederation should be a last resort for problem instances. I don’t understand why so many people are suddenly so defederation-happy all of a sudden. Turn off NSFW content in your settings and just block any communities you don’t want to see. If it remains a problem down the line, then consider defederating.
I have a question about the potential legal problems. If I host my own instance and federate with a server that (like lemmynsfw.com for the sake of argument) allows NSFW content of drawn minors (or apparent minors, whatever, the details don’t matter), their content is copied onto my instance and I’m not hosting that content, right? So if that content is illegal in my home country, am I now hosting illegal content?
Not a lawyer. But I would say if the content exists on your host, even in a cache, you would be liable
No, they’re not.

You should get information from the source rather than playing telephone.
I’m here to replace reddit, so yeah I think I personally would like the option, even though I don’t usually look at NSFW.
