I got a report on one of my posts, It was for the mods of lemmy.ml letting them know that porn was popping up on .ml. I went and checked lemmy.ml's instances and we are now in the blocked list. I know they had a number of large communities so this is just a heads up to everyone who may have been subbed to any.
I know I shouldn't engage, but you are right. Not everyone wants to see furry porn on their all feed. And as a moderator of a porn community I'd like to have the ability to say "you know what, I'd rather posts be unlisted and not appear in the all feed". Maybe even if I were running my own instance I could block some of the more riskier communities.
But none of these tools exist yet, unlisted posts and per-user instance wide blocklists would be really nice features. If you don't like this sort of content, you could just mute yiffit.net and go on with your life.
There are two established major porn lemmy instances, both of which are blocked by lemmy.ml. If they saw this as a problem IMO they should implement instance blocking as a priority. But they haven't, and decided that blocking access to people is the better option. The situation is getting super frustrating at this point.
Engaging is fine. They are right about a lot of people not wanting to see furry porn on All. its the hostility of how they started that irked me. I would have been more than happy to have a conversation with them about it.
Also as someone who moderates a few communities here as well I agree with a lot of what you said.
You're fine to engage, even if I responded negatively, I'm just an asshole on the Internet like everyone else, besides; everything you said was right on the money.
I seriously don't get it haha. Like you're browsing all, you're gonna see something you don't like. Block it and move on. No one in that community cares that you don't like it so why comment. That is the second person I've had this "discussion" with here recently.
Hey bud, this was a post to let people on this instance know about it. Not a complaint or anything to anyone else. You don't need to be here and no one cares. Just block the communities and move on.
Except you didn't by bothering to comment in the first place. Get better social skills and learn when and where to share your opinion, Its not hard. Good riddance.
I agree, many users use "All" because Lemmy can be a bit slow and we're looking for more new communities to subscribe to. However, I have NSFW blurred on Sync for Lemmy.
