I've checked the box but now that it's blocking properly marked porn, my /active feed is being inundated with what feels like a hundred different "furry" communities and magazines. I'm blocking them as they come up because I'm not into that shit at all but is there an additional filter I can add or is that maybe something that is coming down the pipeline?

Go to this page and block the domain. It seems to be the instance that all the offending posts are coming from, at least this morning.

Kbin supports instance blocks? Don't have that yet on Lemmy

[–] jake@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yeah but I don't know if there's anywhere it's made clear. Unless I'm mistaken, you just kind of have to know about the /d/ url.

[–] ShadowRunner@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

No, you can click the instance/domain that's in parentheses to the right of the thread title. That brings you to the kbin page for that instance, and you have the block button there.

[–] kubica@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

of course the /d/ what else

[–] cjerrington@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I've been able to see that you can block individual communities on lemmy, but not domains yet.

Ah thank you! I didn't know we could block domains. One look at that page confirms that a good deal of it was coming from there today.

[–] Alexmitter@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Seems OP generally does not want to see furry content. Not just not NSFW content. Blocking one instance will not be enough for that, he may needs to destroy his modem with fire to properly filter out all furry content.

I’m not seeing where I go to block the domain, I’m using kbin on chrome for iOS. I can see under my settings where it would show the domains I’ve blocked but I don’t know how to add a domain to that list. Help please!

[–] iNeedScissors67@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm not sure about Chrome but the link posted above took me to the domain and let me block it from the sidebar (which is on the bottom of the page on mobile)

[–] Brianala@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

Aha, that helped, thank you! I had to go through the hamburger menu to open the sidebar on the top left in chrome. Appreciate it!

In order for the NSFW block to work, people need to flag their content as NSFW. If people aren't doing it, the admins of that server either a) aren't enforcing their rules, or b) the rules there are set up to allow the rest of the Fediverse to be spammed with NSFW content.

I'm either case, other admins should reach out to express concerns, and if the offending admins don't respond or won't do anything, they should be defederated . This is exactly the kind of thing that defederation exists for.

It's also the kind of thing that media blocks on Mastodon exist for. So, maybe it's also an imputus for those to get implemented in Lemmy and kbin and then used.

Plugging my NSF(W/L) system from the other day in case anyone wants to add to it or do something with it.

Is your issue NSFW content showing up even though you deactivated NSFW content, or do you generally not want to see any furry content in All?
I kinda suspect its the second.

[–] iNeedScissors67@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Column A would solve column B but I realize the latter is much harder to do lol. I have no problem with it existing, I just want to filter it out, but if it was all properly tagged NSFW then I suppose the issue would be solved.

[–] Alexmitter@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

See, people won't just NSFW tag all furry content. That won't happen if you implied that. We can only make sure to correctly tag actual NSFW stuff.
About actual NSFW content. Admin tools are still basically non existing, not everything posted in a NSFW community/magazin can automatically tagged yet and people sometimes miss it so admins have to manually go through it all and manually tag. Please excuse it if that does not go fast enough.
But this is not furry exclusive, all NSFW communities/magazines currently have this issue.

[–] callyral@readit.buzz 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

so what's happening is that, nsfw magazines/communities don't have all their posts marked as nsfw? is this a bug?

[–] Alexmitter@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

OP wants to see no furry content, not just no NSFW content.
