RIGHT!?!?! Like I hate taking a gamble on whether I’ll see an infected maggot ridden foot or a big breasted cat girl turning into a Willy Wonka blueberry.
At least I did on Reddit, I can’t get the porn to show up on Lemmy outside of one or two completely dead instances I have to go out of my way for.
Some of these responses seem to find bouncers and springers more gross than wounds, death and diseases. Like a bunch of psycho puritan Catholic warmongers.
Melons and popsicles.
Sandbags and beercans.
Milkjugs and wieners.
I’m trying to make it American friendly, they’re very sensitive people when it comes to this type of thing. Images of Auschwitz would be mild to them if it weren’t for how naked all the people were.
I can see many people in the comments mentioning various levels of specificity for the tags. I think porn and gore should perhaps have a tag each. Maybe one or two more categories, but having too many would complicate posting on Lemmy a lot. For example, whether or not to put a politics tag may be ambiguous in some cases. I’m not sure about historical artwork, as there are situations where it’s normal to be viewing it. There are also some works that I’d rather not be seen looking at in all places: some of that stuff got weird. Not to mention: people marking things NSFW as a joke just confuses things further.
I never noticed it being a big problem though. I think just having one, two , maybe three different tags at most and letting communities play it by ear would work fine.
No
I haven’t seen anything gorey here, luckily. I would much rather see an automatic video tag for both titles and comments. Kind of sick of opening YouTube unintentionally.
I regularly see videos and images from the war in Ukraine on lemmy. It is marked as NSFW, and blurred, so it looks nearly identical at a glance to content that is NSFW due to sexual content.
I would prefer if those two things were visually distinct in the interface.
Maybe it’s because my main account is lemm.ee? I just don’t see that stuff at all and I primarily browse All.
