TIL you can copy links to settings with a long press!
You have 7,000 instances and keywords blocked and still torture porn comes through? I have none blocked and I see no torture porn.
Thatβs messed up. Where?
Probably BDSM and not actual torture.
That's messed up. Where?
I mean the wooden horse shit is supposedly both.
Reminder you can also long press any setting to generate settings links for Sync: Settings shortcut: Account settings > Show NSFW content
Cool! I didn't know that was a thing.
Yeah super cool feature I only know about because someone posted it months ago, figured I'll keep the knowledge flowing
Just answering a question as directly as possible. You da real MVP!
But I want to block porn, not all NSFW stuff is porn...
How do I get it to actually work though? Everytime I toggle that slider, I get an error.
Not sure what's up... It's working fine here. Are you logged into your instance in sync?
Yup. Trying to change any of those settings results in
"Network Error Unable to save"
@[email protected] Might be able to help. I've personally never seen that one.
Just adding that I have the same problem. Whether I try to enable or block NSFW content it won't save. I can only change it if I log into the web interface
Thank you!
What's weird, is that I don't have any filters at all, and I have nsfw content allowed in the settings. Yet, I've never seen any porn through the sync app. Like, not even once. But I keep seeing people talk about how much porn there is all over the place. I'm very confused.
If your own instance doesn't federate with NSFW instances, you won't see any.
I also have it allowed and I only saw when browsing All. Just had to block LemmyNSFW
In my experience it depends on how you browse. I have seen porn if I browse by everything/new. This had lead to me blocking a lot of random stuff, not just porn. But if I'm just scrolling subscribed/active or subscribed/new I don't see porn. It may also depend on whether your instance is federated with the instance that supplies most porn.
But then youll miss out on furry tentacle girl with tits the size of a car
That's messed up. Where?
Link please.
I need to know where this is so I can ~~masturbate furiously to it~~ filter it out.
Did you try searching for NSFW in the settings? There's an option for it
If the posts are coming from a porn specific Lemmy instance, you can block it entirely in the filters section. Here's a shortcut: Settings shortcut: Filters > Instance filters
This is a workaround, not a solution, but you could set your default view to Subscribed instead of All and then you'd only see the stuff you have chosen to see. Not perfect, but it's one possibility.
Type NSFW into the search in settings.
Torture porn? Haven't seen anything I would classify as that.
I blocked the Lemmy NSFW instance, and that made all the porn go away, which is what I wanted (you do you guys I just don't care for it).
They're talking about torture stuff, which I haven't seen any of but it sounds like it's NSFW as a whole
Which app do you use?
Boost
There's porn here?
For the first few weeks I was continuously blocking communities to get rid of it until I realized blocking the right instance would do it. Now I don't see any.
How do you block an entire instance?
I did it through the connect app.
Honestly I have two Lemmy accounts. One for normal browsing and one for porn. The porn one I only look at pre subscribed subs, so I don't get random shit. Normal account is NSFW free which is just great.
But turning on a NSFW filter blocks some funny shit that's just naughty, not pornographic.
Mel Gibson's Passion of the Christ? Yeah, man! I got off SO HARD I had to leave the theater.
I'm on kbin and have to go out of my way to see any porn there.
Right? I've specifically got NSFW enabled so I can get randomly surprised with tiddies and I couldn't tell you the last time I saw anything close
Uhh what feeds are popping up for you??
Just scrolled Subscribed, didn't see any porn. Scrolled All and the most I saw was hentai and racial fetish baiting.
I have opposite, I don't see enough NSFW content, I miss my daily boobs. Sopuli.xyz (great instance btw) doesn't federate nsfw, so I have to switch accounts, to jump to NSFW side.
Is there any way to combine two accounts into one feed?
