In my experience you only see it if you have nsfw stuff turned on and you have nsfw unhidden and you browse stuff by new (this is coming from a furry on a furry instance). The furry complaints are overblown imo, lemmynsfw is way worse; stuff doesn’t always get tagged as nsfw there.

I blocked like 3 magazines, and 99% of the furry stuff on my ‘new’ feed immediately dried up. Mostly just a few places being very active, it would seem.

I mean, I see a lot of furries in my local feed, but it doesn’t take a sherlock to see why. In all feed though, even with this account, I could hardly see any furry posts, although very occasionally they show up.

I have not seen any furry stuff yet, except the odd lemmy-flooded-by-furry meme. NSFW enabled.

I had to block five to ten-ish furry or similar communities and I’ve since seen nothing furry related on my feed. So it’s not like it’s a huge problem, but it does certainly affect people’s first impression of the platform.

Maybe it’s lemm.ee? Not a furry but in all while sorting by new, I get a large quantity of furry porn, along with other porn. I’ll admit I’m blocking every porn community until I can just block instances, so maybe that shows more, but it’s been like this the entire time

So much so that I disabled NSFW posts altogether.

If you allow any NSFW content (like Ukraine feeds) it comes through, and there are like 40+ Yiff communities. I spent the weekend after I joined blocking them.

The only others that are as bad are Baseball, Soccer, and F1. I am working on blocking all of them as well.

My fursona is a homo sapien. Am I doing this right?

(This joke isn’t meant to denigrate furries at all, rather it is a joke pointing out that humans are animals, too. That’s all)

Don’t worry, I got the joke even before your edit.

Now then:

Pushes glasses up snout ACKTHUALLY while humans might technically be animals, the furry community revolves around animals that possess unnaturally human characteristics, or to put it another way, animals with anthropomorphic features. Because human characteristics are natural to humans, they aren’t really part of the furry community.

That said, most furries will accept you anyway so long as you aren’t disrupting the vibe. Hell, some people have 'sonas which aren’t based on animals at all, but instead based on planes, trains, etc. There was a meme that went around furry Twitter recently where artists were turning trains into “synth” dragons or similar creatures.

I mean, honestly, any way we can get people to drop the Chrome (and Chromium derivative) monopoly on the internet right now is important, because Google is really throwing their weight around. Web Environment Integrity is Digital Rights Management for fucking ads. Drink your verification can, please!

Firefox or Safari, they’re the last two non-Chromium based browsers available.

Femboys and furries and small or huge titties. If you can silence all 40 of each Iof those communities, Lemmy is usable.

No weiners. No anime. No hairy minges. No extreme titties. Is that so much to ask for?

Or you can browse following and see only what you are following, you know? Like how reddit does it

That would be fine if there was a way to meaningfully populate your subscribed list on sign up, but there isn’t. You gotta go out and see what exists, and shit is weird.

The most annoying part of Lemmy is when there are multiple communities with the same focus on different instances. The result is that you end up with duplicate posts when someone posts something to multiple communities.

This might already exist, but it’d be nice if there was an option (maybe clientside?) to “merge” communities or posts when they feature the same url and/or text with a visual marker showing which communities comments are coming from.

I also think that it’d help if instances had the ability to set up default community lists for local communities on sign up. Again, that might already exist and just doesn’t get used, but it’d help get people off “all” and fix a lot of the porn complaints.

Or even browse Local if you sign up on an instance that doesn’t have that.
