Settings shortcut: Account settings > Show NSFW content

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 16 points 10 months ago

TIL you can copy links to settings with a long press!

[-] wildcardology@lemmy.world 50 points 10 months ago

You have 7,000 instances and keywords blocked and still torture porn comes through? I have none blocked and I see no torture porn.

[-] LEDZeppelin@lemmy.world 49 points 10 months ago

That’s messed up. Where?

[-] Aurix@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago

Probably BDSM and not actual torture.

[-] DokPsy@infosec.pub 22 points 10 months ago

That's messed up. Where?

[-] PsychedSy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

I mean the wooden horse shit is supposedly both.

Just answering a question as directly as possible. You da real MVP!

[-] static@midwest.social 16 points 10 months ago

Reminder you can also long press any setting to generate settings links for Sync: Settings shortcut: Account settings > Show NSFW content

[-] pixelscience@sh.itjust.works 5 points 10 months ago

Cool! I didn't know that was a thing.

[-] static@midwest.social 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Yeah super cool feature I only know about because someone posted it months ago, figured I'll keep the knowledge flowing

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 7 points 10 months ago

But I want to block porn, not all NSFW stuff is porn...

[-] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

How do I get it to actually work though? Everytime I toggle that slider, I get an error.

[-] pixelscience@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

Not sure what's up... It's working fine here. Are you logged into your instance in sync?

[-] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

Yup. Trying to change any of those settings results in

"Network Error Unable to save"

[-] pixelscience@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

@ljdawson@lemmy.world Might be able to help. I've personally never seen that one.

[-] thekidxp@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

Just adding that I have the same problem. Whether I try to enable or block NSFW content it won't save. I can only change it if I log into the web interface

[-] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Thank you!

[-] comrade19@lemmy.world 28 points 10 months ago

But then youll miss out on furry tentacle girl with tits the size of a car

[-] stackPeek@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

That's messed up. Where?

[-] Sabata11792@kbin.social 8 points 10 months ago

Link please.

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 5 points 10 months ago

I need to know where this is so I can ~~masturbate furiously to it~~ filter it out.

[-] DLSantini@lemmy.ml 27 points 10 months ago

What's weird, is that I don't have any filters at all, and I have nsfw content allowed in the settings. Yet, I've never seen any porn through the sync app. Like, not even once. But I keep seeing people talk about how much porn there is all over the place. I'm very confused.

[-] sndrtj@feddit.nl 14 points 10 months ago

If your own instance doesn't federate with NSFW instances, you won't see any.

[-] Octopus1348@lemy.lol 4 points 10 months ago

I also have it allowed and I only saw when browsing All. Just had to block LemmyNSFW

[-] atrielienz@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

In my experience it depends on how you browse. I have seen porn if I browse by everything/new. This had lead to me blocking a lot of random stuff, not just porn. But if I'm just scrolling subscribed/active or subscribed/new I don't see porn. It may also depend on whether your instance is federated with the instance that supplies most porn.

[-] echo64@lemmy.world 17 points 10 months ago

Did you try searching for NSFW in the settings? There's an option for it

[-] Mandy@sh.itjust.works 12 points 10 months ago

[-] LiveLM@lemmy.zip 11 points 10 months ago

If the posts are coming from a porn specific Lemmy instance, you can block it entirely in the filters section. Here's a shortcut: Settings shortcut: Filters > Instance filters

[-] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

This is a workaround, not a solution, but you could set your default view to Subscribed instead of All and then you'd only see the stuff you have chosen to see. Not perfect, but it's one possibility.

[-] SirStumps@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Type NSFW into the search in settings.

[-] SinningStromgald@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago

Torture porn? Haven't seen anything I would classify as that.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

I blocked the Lemmy NSFW instance, and that made all the porn go away, which is what I wanted (you do you guys I just don't care for it).

[-] wolfshadowheart@slrpnk.net 5 points 10 months ago

They're talking about torture stuff, which I haven't seen any of but it sounds like it's NSFW as a whole

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Which app do you use?

[-] wolfshadowheart@slrpnk.net 2 points 10 months ago

Boost

[-] Mediocre_Bard@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

There's porn here?

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

For the first few weeks I was continuously blocking communities to get rid of it until I realized blocking the right instance would do it. Now I don't see any.

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

How do you block an entire instance?

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I did it through the connect app.

[-] trustnoone@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 10 months ago

Honestly I have two Lemmy accounts. One for normal browsing and one for porn. The porn one I only look at pre subscribed subs, so I don't get random shit. Normal account is NSFW free which is just great.

[-] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 7 points 10 months ago

But turning on a NSFW filter blocks some funny shit that's just naughty, not pornographic.

[-] BaroqueInMind@kbin.social 3 points 10 months ago

I'm on kbin and have to go out of my way to see any porn there.

[-] CosmicApe@kbin.social 4 points 10 months ago

Right? I've specifically got NSFW enabled so I can get randomly surprised with tiddies and I couldn't tell you the last time I saw anything close

[-] moon@lemmy.cafe 3 points 10 months ago

Uhh what feeds are popping up for you??

[-] BoastfulDaedra@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 10 months ago

Mel Gibson's Passion of the Christ? Yeah, man! I got off SO HARD I had to leave the theater.

[-] lurch@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

I swear, since I browse Lemmy when bored, I'm horny 24/7 😅

[-] Hotzilla@sopuli.xyz 1 points 10 months ago

I have opposite, I don't see enough NSFW content, I miss my daily boobs. Sopuli.xyz (great instance btw) doesn't federate nsfw, so I have to switch accounts, to jump to NSFW side.

Is there any way to combine two accounts into one feed?
