A boob, a butt, or even some violence like one might see on the news anyway, Iām not freaked out about all that and I donāt feel the need to hide it from those around me usuallyā¦ thatās all fine fine, but I donāt want porn on my feed like at all.
Editing for clarity here:
Those are all things that might get flagged NSFW that I donāt mind seeing in general. Iām not uptight about it, itās just a little different to be inundated with hardcore pornography likeā¦ while on the train.
I joined a primarily social insurance, kbin.social. I am very open to what is in my feed, sometimes to the extremer ends of that. I just believe that porn is a separate thing entirely and should be separated in some way. Iām not opposed to porn, but thereās a reason it had its own room in the video store. And if youāre wanting to look at porn, thereās a good chance youāre ONLY looking for porn at that moment.
I donāt disagree - but just during this whole Ukraine / Russia thing Iāve found myself subscribing to some things where Iām likely to see footage from the field. To me this is just informational and in some ways important to see, despite the fact that it is difficult to take. Horrors of war and all that. Thatās a normal part of my daily news consumption while someone in a dog costume getting railed in an elevator at a convention is uhā¦ well it is what it is, and I donāt want it.
Oh, thatās just terrible! Share the location of that post, will you? I wouldnāt want to stumble upon it by accident!
Nice try compadre

His point is he doesnāt want to be shown everything. He wants a distinction between material thatās inappropriate for a workplace environment, and porn.
You wouldnāt think this concept would be so controversial or difficult to understand but hey itās the internet
Clearly itās fuckin revolutionary because no-one seems to be able to grasp it.

You donāt think thereās a middle ground here where maybe NSFW is far too restrictive in most modern platforms, especially Reddit where almost every profile that discusses drugs or sex or cigarettes or whatever is marked NSFW, and maybe just āpornā which is literally illegal to display to minors in the USA? I like drugs, I like sex, I got no problem talking about any of it. But if I want to see a complete feed thereās no room to even ASK for an option to see everything that isnāt porn?

Use your eyes and your brain and re-read and realize that you are just not actually understanding anything.
Like, I get it dude. You like drugs and porn. Itās literally your username. In the world I imagine, you would have both the āShow NSFW contentā box checked as well as the āDisplay pornographic contentā box, youād have every box checked Iām sure because you get on here after taking two xans and a puff of A-PiHP and jerk it for hours, which is FINE! I donāt care.
MOST PEOPLE on here want to see new content outside of what they have subscribed to because the Fediverse is huge and itās impossible to subscribe to everything you want to see. Most of those people arenāt trying to watch porn, and would prefer to filter it out. To have that option, without also removing everything else that might be deemed āNSFWā would be PRETTY COOL.
NOBODY is trying to fuck up your hobby or take anything away from you. Itās just a slightly altered feed based on some common sense practices.
Hey buddy, you know youāre talking to yourself right? You good?
What Iām saying is that thereās āNSFWā which includes many things and then thereās āpornā which deserves a separate designation for those of us that are here to see literally anything but porn.

Right, youāre kind of arguing my point here. NSFW is not sufficient for most peopleās casual browsing experience and there should be additional designations, or just one, one for āporn,ā which would solve 99% of unwanted material on most peopleās feeds

Itās not like theyāre asking it to go away or to be curated for everyone. They just wanted to differentiate the type of NSFW. Sometimes if someones in the mood the last thing they want to see is some poor bastard get splattered on a road, other times when the morbid curiosity hits you donāt want to see someone showing their āOH!ā face.
You tell them to curate their feed, and thatās partly what they want to accomplish. Yes, there are tools in place to do it, but itās easier to find what you want by filtering down than it is to use some of the search tools.
Have a good night my fellow internet person. Not worth the argument. Most people are able to see the difference here and itās in line with how most people use social media in most places most of the time. I donāt want to see snuff films either but thatās not clogging up half the āallā feed requiring me to block multiple subs per day.
I donāt see peopleās issue with your argument. Reddit does this implicitly by blocking porn subs from the front page. I dont want this here but there should just be a sub tag to have it filtered out.
So imagine NSFW (or 18+) as a circle and sexual content as a smaller circle within it. Some people look for NSFW (say, combat footage), but not porn. If a post was designated within āsexual contentā, it would also put it within the realm of NSFW, so it wonāt show up to someone who doesnāt want to see NSFW, but if someone is fine with NSFW but not sexual content, they wonāt see porn, but will be able to see NSFW.
