How is a fediverse user supposed to find communities? I can’t find a way to search across the fediverse, which pretty much kills the concept IMO. I was browsing All via Lemmy.world - Mlem - iOS and my feed is half anime porn, with some pictures depicting underage and others not blurred as NSFW.

Am I going about the fediverse all wrong? How do y’all deal with this? Right now the fediverse seems like a glitchy, overcomplicated 4chan.

You could disable NSFW in your profile or use a service like lemmyverse.net to find communities to subscribe to.

Is nsfw specifically for porn or is it like Reddit where it was used for anything anyone might find offensive or inappropriate anywhere? I hesitate to block all nsfw content on the fediverse for fear of missing legitimate content.

From what I’ve seen NSFW tags are implemented similarly to reddit, however from browsing all and not having NSFW blocked the majority of the posts are porn/nudity.

I’ve been blocking NSFW communities that I don’t want to see while browsing all which has been working fairly well.

I like how the app Jerboa can handle NSFW, I have it set to show the post, but blur the image, which makes it easier to decide if it is something I want to look at or not.

It would be nice if we could have a tag specifically for nudity and/or porn.

I guess my instance doesn’t federate because browsing all I don’t see anything nsfw. NSFW is on though.

Yes, you’re right. I personally leave NSFW toggled on and go ahead to manually block every single community I don’t want to see.

Two things you can do: disable being shown nsfw altogether, and browse communities that exist to help you find communities (like !newcommunities@lemmy.world )

Someone should create a masterlist of nsfw communities and create anotherscript that blocks them lul

Being able to block instances as a user (not defed but just hide all their communities) would be helpful

Theres a few specific ones I am constantly blocking communities from (nsfw/porn, anime, furry, sports)

Create post

No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others’ questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That’s it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it’s in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
