Edit: this appears to be a bug actually, the gonewild community example i gave below was actually flagged as nsfw, and on lemmy posts are blurred when disabling nsfw in settings, but kbin still shows the posts

As of right now ticking “hide adult content” in settings only works for posts with an NSFW flag set by the creator.

However, i’ve just come across a surge of uncensored porn on the homepage even. I dont know whether people dont tick “post is NSFW” out of ignorance (they might not realise the option exists), or for predatory reasons.

Solution:

Not only hiding posts with the NSFW filter, but also maintaining a blacklist of NSFW magazines. A good filter would be to hide all magazines with “gonewild” or “porn” in the name for example.

Magazines/instances to blacklist

  • the entire lemmynsfw.com instance
  • gonewild from lemmyworld
  • any other magazine/instance with the term “nsfw”, “porn”, or “gonewild” in the name
