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.

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
Been using Lemmy for a month and I haven't seen a single porn.
God damn it, I never see any 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
You could join an instance that blacklists lemmynsfw
I'm on a different instance that's all about porn. I think it's actually the biggest instance for porn.
Just disable nsfw in your settings
There may be content that isn’t porn that may be marked nsfw for whatever reasons users may want to see that blanket disabling NSFW would hide.
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.
Right now most of the NSFW content is posted to the LemmyNSFW instance.
Lemmy.ml has defederated from that instance, lemmy.world has not, that's the only "censorship" going on. This is all public information you can find by clicking on "instances" at the bottom of these instances home pages.
Two things you can do:
-
You can change your account settings to filter out all NSFW content.
-
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 think Lemmy should implement something like user domain block like in Pixelfed
Settings > uncheck "Show NSFW content" then lol
Otherwise, I hope you use tissues made from recycled paper lol
