That unfortunately is not how browsing 'All' works. You see subs that users on your instance subscribe to.
I never asked for a boobs tag. I was stating that I’m not personally offended if a stray nipple appears in my feed. But overall, porn, including most nudity, should be able to be filtered from the feed while still receiving content from subs I haven’t subscribed to.
I have artful nude line drawings in my house for all to see. People post most-of-butt pics on Instagram all day. That’s different from jack-off material.
I see asses at work sometimes. Literally just need to not see porn or extreme gore.
Nope, literally just think a “porn” designation to filter out all content that is actually porn. This includes soft core porn, just all nudity, which is also how the law works because it’s illegal to show pornography to a minor but the rest of the nsfw category is down to a guardians discretion on what’s appropriate. It’s not a huge ask, you’re splitting hairs here, I just want an option filter out porn and that’s it.
You’re not this thick and I know it.
I've been saying the same every time this topic comes up. People seem too afraid to enable ONE setting while they are out in public and extemely afraid of porn, but showing violence to people at work or kids in the bus is ok, right? Why not block all that to be safe? Just disable that filter at home, it's not that hard, the posts they missed during the day will be there when they get home, they can watch all their precious violence there.
I agree for having granular filters because I'm ok with porn and erotism, but I don't want to watch gore, scarejumps or other type of shock content, but having a full NSFW filter is needed and should stay, people just need to use it.
Nobody ever said to get rid of the NSFW filter
I’m not an avid consumer of violence, I’m not craving it. A general NSFW is great, and I’m not against it. I’m not sure if you were trying to disagree with me here or not, since people keep trying to talk me into arguing points that I never actually had any intention of arguing I don’t even know what is directed at me at this point.
The number of false equivalencies across the entire thread here is wild, because people somehow think porn is under threat or something. I am a freelancer and look at kbin for fun at home, ANY use of social media while I’m actually at work is kinda NSFW because I’m supposed to be working. I browse the internet at home, where the eyes that might see my phone are a teenage son and a girlfriend.
Should I be browsing, and somehow the kid sees that there’s a news report or shared image of a dead Russian soldier on the ground, or a portrait featuring a barely visible nipple, he’s mature and I can contextualize that for him. He has seen R rated movies with sex scenes, whatever. None of that is a big deal. Hardcore pornography is a different deal. Any granularity beyond that is great.
Also apples are not oranges.
