A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I don't want to live in a bubble for one but, more importantly, a new user will not have subscriptions.
Then that's the risk you take browsing unfiltered content. Especially on Lemmy, you are never going to get this consensus on how to tage content. So if you are in a place where you can't see sensitive content, then stick to more filtered content. This is like day 1 internet stuff.
Again, this fails to cover both the cases of someone who is checking out mbin/lemmy for the first time as well as someone who does decide it's maybe more than a sketchy site and doesn't have subscriptions yet.
Yes, and it also fails to realise that you can turn off NSFW filtering if you want in settings. Settings exist for a reason. If you want to view lemmy just in your subscribed communities that's fine. If you want to turn off NSFW filtering, that's fine. If you want to blur it all, that's fine. You do you. Fix the settings how you like, but there's no need for folks to hate on us for wanting to use the Not Safe For Work filter as it's designed.
The OP is literally about the images not being flagged as NSFW.
Ah sorry, maybe I replied to the wrong post. I agreed with your point!
So block that community and you wont see posts from it.
I mean it should be fairly obvious, but sometimes a person is at home while browsing, and might like to see these. Other times they are at work while browsing and could actually get into trouble for viewing them
This is about the "not safe for work" tag, isn't it?
If you wanna browse at work, use a different account then? As others said, 'NSFW' is applied differently by different people (I don't think the example provided is NSFW, it's skimpy, but not lewd), at some point you have to have some self responsibility.
and sometimes you have to accept that other people want to use the Not Suitable For Work filter as designed. If you don't like it, you can turn it off in settings.
But I think it would be an unusual workplace that would find this suitable to be on my phone screen in the canteen.
And it would depend on the workplace too, there's a lot of ambiguity, which is why you should just be responsible. If there's a risk an anime tummy might appear on your screen, then just don't browse on here at work.
Alternatively, just tag things not suitable for work as NSFW. Simple.
Well, there's your problem. What in fuck's name are you doing wasting time on lemmy when you should be working..?
And, if for some unconscionable reason you need lemmy for work and your IT aren't competent enough to have blocked it in the company firewall, just make yourself a work-specific user and browse by subscribed (though if you really needed it for work you'd almost certainly be going to specific communities anyway, not to the aggregated views...
Why get cross with people who want to use the Not Suitable For Work filtering at work? If you don't like it, turn it off. It's in settings. No one's forcing you to use lemmy the same way other users do.
I mean, I do for a lot of porn and some other communities (I'm not personally into anime at all, so those are usually among them). There are still two issues remaining:
I mean, congrats on finding content outside your bubble then. If you don't like it, use the tools available to you.
Like the Not Suitable For Work filter, you mean?
