You have "block all NSFW content" enabled in your account, the problem is that the setting block any content NSFW and lots of them aren't porn at all, just sensitive content. This is why many are asking for a proper PORN tag to block exclusively that. Until then the best we can do either to block all or block one community at the time.
I guess I'm doing it wrong then, all I see are days old posts about how this place isn't reddit and how people are délétion their reddit posts, and how life without reddit is si much more betterer. REDDIT!
Where are the tits?
I have seen so much more porn on a single night of reddit than I have the entire time I've been on lemmy. I feel this is just a weird psyop to scare people away from the "degenerate leftist place!"
I checked on the All feed, both under New and Active. It took me several pages of browsing to find a single pornographic submission, and to be honest all you really have to do is go into settings and either disable NSFW content or block communities which post porn. Only like... two or three NSFW communities on LemmyNSFW are really hitting the All feed.
All depends very much on the instance you are in. Depending on who the people in your instance subscribe to, is what is shown in all. I didnt have much porn between .ca or reddthat yesterday. It also depends on how you sort in that instance.
There's a shit ton of porn subs that pop up throughout the days. Ive blocked 50 so far in under a week. That's all just from them popping up on /all/ + top 6 hours and me blocking as I see on my feed.
I'm actually confused at all the people who haven't seen the porn lmao. There is always at least one post at the top of my feed when I get on.
I dunno what instance you're on, but I have allowed NSFW on lemmy.world and rarely have I seen porn. Thankfully a lot of it is over at lemmynsfw.com instead so I can see stuff labeled NSFW here without being flooded with porn. Unless .world defederated from lemmysnfw at some point. I haven't paid attention to much meta news and who has defederated from who.
Yeah what sick people would sit half naked in that office chair looking at the screen, one hand on the mouse, listening intensively that no one in the house is nearby, searching for the filth that would make the moment complete. Sick sick people, tell me where to find it
As far as I can tell there isn't actually that much? The only instance that really hosts it front and center is lemmyNSFW, and thats pretty small compared to most other spots
Might have something to do with the way kbin ranks posts. Top posts are mostly ranked according to boosts rather than upvotes (favourites). I'd guess people are less likely to boost porn since a boost theoretically 'retweets' the post. Actually I'm also not sure if you can boost from Lemmy?
The main NSFW instance has the NSFW content gated behind accounts. You can see all the SFW content from anywhere, but you need to be logged in there to see the porn.
Maybe I haven't been hanging around Lemmy that long, but I haven't seen any NSFW stuff yet. Might be tempting fate, and considering I am looking at Lemmy at work.
I saw a few nasty pics of a woman defaecating that were just slipped into random trending posts a couple of days ago, but it seems to have calmed down now. No idea how that kind of thing is going to be prevented in the future, but hopefully there will be something.
One thing that annoyed me a bit was that Lemmy Connect was not blurring the images, even though they had been heavily downvoted and I had blur NSFW enabled. I guess it only blurs things tagged, not things that have been downvoted, and it might be worth adding the option to blur images on -n downvotes as an option to enable users to crowd source censor images.
Porn is always the trailblazer. Without the demand for porn we wouldn't have had VHS (and hence the whole concept of video on demand in your home), or instant credit card payment gateways.
I guess what I'm trying to say is: an unhealthy amount of porn = a healthy community.
That’s not really true though. We got home video because it allowed us to watch films at home. There’s an argument that VHS won over Betamax because Sony didn’t allow porn titles on Betamax. Even if that’s true, it was only an advantage for VHS because there was no other easy way to get that content.
Now there is no problem with accessing porn on the internet. In fact the differentiator for many service providers is how to successfully protect households and schools from porn. If Lemmy becomes known as “the porn network”, little Johnny is going to find that loophole closed in short order.
What instance are you connected to ? I've been browsing "all" since a week before reddit died and I've seen maybe one porn post in there the whole time ? I'm viewing via lemmy.nz if it helps ?

Pretty sure my instance also blocks porn. Can't say I mind it, really, because I can just create an account on a porn instance.
Allows me to keep NSFW posts on, but not have to worry about pulling up a pic of a gaped ass in public. Plus if I was interested in following porn communities, I'd probably create a second account anyway. And then I wouldn't even have to wade through all of the regular stuff, I could just sign up for a porn instance. Win-win.
Seems to me that everyone with this opinion lives on Lemmy.world and peeps in other instances or on Kbin see something different, not sure why that happens
NSFW tags are still used for spoilers here. I’d be cutting out major parts of subs I want to see by disabling NSFW content.
I’m also having the same problems as OP. I can’t reliably browse local or all at work because some uncensored hardcore porn is fairly likely to show up
I don't know how the hell some of these peeps in the comments are somehow avoiding it, but I've had to block probably a dozen or more communities before I could just enjoy Lemmy normally.
Same, I ended up taking the recommendation of another user and making an account on sopuli.xyz because they’ve blocked lemmynsfw and some other porn instances. Best decision I’ve made regarding Lemmy thus far. I probably won’t be going back to my lemmy.world or beehaw accounts any time soon unless something happens to sopuli.
I have enabled NSFW content on lemmy.ml and lemmy.world.
When I look up specific NSFW content, the results on lemmy.world are way more. Especially for NSFW instances, but also some posts itself.
So for some reason, the result on lemmy.ml (and other instance) are censored and filtered.
I mean, it's fine if you don't look for that content.
What makes me wonder is, why there is no information about it when you join an instance.
Right now most of the NSFW content is posted to the LemmyNSFW instance.
Lemmy.ml has defederated from that instance, lemmy.world has not, that's the only "censorship" going on. This is all public information you can find by clicking on "instances" at the bottom of these instances home pages.
You can change your account settings to filter out all NSFW content.
Alternatively, since NSFW can include more than just porn, you can block specific NSFW communities (most of which will probably come from lemmynsfw.com) as you encounter them. While logged in, if you encounter an NSFW community in your feed, just click on it to go to its main page (ex. [email protected], a community from my own blocklist), go to the sidebar, and click "Block Community".
I'm using Connect for Lemmy, and under "All" it's everywhere. If you can't find it, you aren't looking. Would like an easier way to filter it all out rather than blocking individual communities
But active shows you 2 days old posts too. On the other hand sorting by hot shows you NSFW posts or memes with 2 upvotes and 0 comments for some reason.
