They are already there. But it’s in wonky markdown…

I think content warnings would be a better approach to this, all other fediverse software have content warnings anyway. Making community content to force use content warnings would be helpful too.

This is one of my dream features to make lemmynsfw moderation easier, alongside site mods and content warnings (alongside the ability to edit and force nsfw on posts in specific communities… and maybe being able to by default turn off instances caching OUR images as a “do not cache” server flag…)

It was a bit backlogged due to last weeks events. Normally I myself will go in at least once every 24 hours and clean up the registration queue as I can. Hopefully as we onboard more admins (soon hopefully!) the delay will be lessened even more :)

You should be good to go now.

Agreed. There needs to also have more granular federation options (blocking images, forcing NSFW on another instances posts, silence them in c/all, etc etc)

I think overall a good way would be to add content warnings like other fediverse software and making it so that you can set specific communities to have specific content warnings to be applied.

100% there needs to be a way to block lemmynsfw, I say this even as an admin for it!

Thank you! This is so awesome

What porn instances have defederated from each other? None that I know of have.

I feel it’s less likely to be hexbear and more just generally lemmy being lemmy, but I can’t say for sure. On that end though, below is a TL;DR on hexbear.

Hexbear is a large lemmy instance that hosts the previous subreddit r/chapotraphouse, a community thats based on a left leaning podcast that embraces “dirt bag leftist” style of discourse. (ie, very vulgar and often intense discourse) They migrated to lemmy after being banned from reddit, and have had federation disabled for a while due to being on a custom lemmy build. They are attempting federation again with an announcement making it clear they are doing it to try and pull political discussions towards their way.

They were banned from Reddit for a multitude of reasons, biggest being their history of coordinated harassment and astroturfing against anyone that remotely breathed potential disagreement their way. Their community takes toxicity to a next level, not even just infiltrating discussions & attempting to sway topics their way but pretty intense coordinate harassment campaigning. We are not a political focused instance but they have been defederated just generally because I know that community from my own personal experience and I’m just not willing to deal with the excess moderation load that will come if they decide to federate with us. If you want a glimpse of why just look at the lemmy.world announcement about it here and look at the mass downvotes and very new accounts.

I’m sure some people there are fine, but we are a team of volunteers and can’t really deal with a community that we have knowledge are very likely to make our lives harder. And for what it’s worth, most of the LemmyNSFW team does lean pretty left.

Just generally lemmy misbehaving, and likely things rapidly catching up with lemmy.world and lemmy.ml posts federating in after they weren’t for a while due to their own issues.

Admin for lemmynsfw here, I just wanted to chime in that I 100% agree and feel that this is a feature that needs be baked into lemmy as a software overall. People who do not want to see pornography need to be able to block it in some way at the very least. There also does need to be an overall differentiation between NSFW content and pornography as well, since it feels particularly problematic to not have a distinction between the two. I think it is likely that content warnings will come to lemmy though, but we will see. Our back-end team is currently working to figure this out to identify our specific needs as an instance, but it’s an uphill battle. Hopefully connect developers add this feature at least to provide a temporary fix, and I hope other app devs follow suit.

I looked at mine out of curiosity and holy cow. Yeah, something is up. I think it might be a lemmy 0.18.0 thing.

Yes. As well as kbin.
