The problem with that approach is that it puts users here in legal jeopardy. Right now if I browse "All" rather than "Local" I'm risking jail time
Not really, mens rea is a pretty universal requirement to be committing a crime
The problem with that is there are so many. Id rather just be able to block the entire instance all at once. I know for certain I want nothing from lemmynsfw period or any other porn instance. I should be able to just block them off.
I have no idea whether lemmy supports that, but kbin does, and you're on kbin.
One would go to something like this:
https://kbin.social/d/lemmynsfw.com
And then just check the crossed circle button in the right-hand sidebar.
EDIT: For completeness, according to this, lemmy does not currently support letting users block entire instances.
In my mind there's a big difference between NSFW and child porn, and where I am, that content is considered to be child porn. I'm happy to deal with filtering NSFW content for myself, but I don't want to risk CP.
The reason I phrased the OP as a question was that I suspect most users here will have a similar view to me and be in favor of blocking servers hosting CP. If that isn't the case I'll happily go find another instance, I don't want to enforce my boundaries on everyone else.
The problem is that in my country those drawings are legally the same thing as child porn. As I said in the OP, I'm not making a moral judgement here, but as a purely practical matter that content is concerning to me.
