Pretty sure my instance also blocks porn. Can't say I mind it, really, because I can just create an account on a porn instance.

Allows me to keep NSFW posts on, but not have to worry about pulling up a pic of a gaped ass in public. Plus if I was interested in following porn communities, I'd probably create a second account anyway. And then I wouldn't even have to wade through all of the regular stuff, I could just sign up for a porn instance. Win-win.

You could join an instance that blacklists lemmynsfw

Seems to me that everyone with this opinion lives on Lemmy.world and peeps in other instances or on Kbin see something different, not sure why that happens

God damn it, I never see any porn!

I don't know how the hell some of these peeps in the comments are somehow avoiding it, but I've had to block probably a dozen or more communities before I could just enjoy Lemmy normally.

Been using Lemmy for a month and I haven't seen a single porn.

Bruh, I bet I have blocked over 100 communities. So much porn. Y'all need a bf/gf. Go out and meet someone and give your meat a rest. Lol

I'm on a different instance that's all about porn. I think it's actually the biggest instance for porn.

I've seen zero. I wonder what step you took such that your feed is full of porn.

Just disable nsfw in your settings

Still better than politics

There isn't really that much but customizing your experience is not the same as reddit so you see it all until you block instances.

Let's conclude.

I have enabled NSFW content on lemmy.ml and lemmy.world. When I look up specific NSFW content, the results on lemmy.world are way more. Especially for NSFW instances, but also some posts itself. So for some reason, the result on lemmy.ml (and other instance) are censored and filtered. I mean, it's fine if you don't look for that content. What makes me wonder is, why there is no information about it when you join an instance.

I see none cos my instance blocks it, so it's just memes and cats

Two things you can do:

1. You can change your account settings to filter out all NSFW content.

2. Alternatively, since NSFW can include more than just porn, you can block specific NSFW communities (most of which will probably come from lemmynsfw.com) as you encounter them. While logged in, if you encounter an NSFW community in your feed, just click on it to go to its main page (ex. !naked@lemmynsfw.com, a community from my own blocklist), go to the sidebar, and click "Block Community".

I just banned all the porn and anime subs, good these enoying cunts where always spamming
