Can we get a consensus on whether our community should de-federate with servers that host loli? I personally think we should block them, and if that ends up not being the consensus here then I’ll probably sign up on another server. I hope we can all agree to set that boundary though because I like it here and it seems otherwise pretty cool.
No need to defederate. I just went and blocked loli and related communities that popped up. I will never see them again.
So, my vote is NAY.
Federation is still young.
It may be easy to individually block communities now but what about in a few months/years when there are potentially 10x more communities across 10x more instances?
How intimidating would it be for a new user to have to go through 100+ communities and block them all individually instead of just blocking 5-10 instances?
Would you say the same about a gore community?
Personally, I’m fine with a NSFW tag, and would hope that NSFW instances respect other instances enough to properly tag stuff.
Any instance with a gore community? Nah, screw that noise. Add it to the block list.
Tbh I think an instance not enforcing tagging content as nsfw is probably very strong grounds for blocking imo
I would block gore communities on a personal level, but there’s no need to do so on a server level unless they’re doing something worth defederating for, like any of the following:
I’d like to have a force-nsfw option for communities that don’t enforce proper usage of the NSFW tag, but for now I’d have to block them most likely.
I like watching gore.
I don’t like gore, but I miss /r/watchpeopledie. I learned a lot from that.
Then you’re more than welcome to; I’m just not a fan.
Absolutely.
But that’s such a bad user experience.
I mean I should hope it’d be blurred out on All
with a content warning or without? Blurring is useful for lewd content imo where you don’t suffer when clicking it, it just hides for the public when reading in train. But I don’t want content just blurred that is literally mentally scarring to the average user.
A NSFL tag would do fine.
How exactly do I do that?
You click the three dots at the bottom-right corner of a post/comment and then click 🚫 to block the community/poster.
