So let me start off by saying that I recognize that there was initially a genuine problem with people who didn’t want NSFW content being exposed to it.
Some of this was due to the fact that not all content was being correctly flagged as NSFW, and some of it was because a lot of users didn’t realize that individual users can choose to completely block an entire instance - which is not only a very easy and fast solution, but also does not require an all-or-nothing approach of defederating from NSFW instances.
A number of changes were made, but some of those lingering changes have meant that people who do want to see NSFW content are not because:
-
Even having subscribed to several NSFW subs, they are effectively completely missing from my feed.
-
Most NSFW thumbnails are blurred.
Both of these behaviors should not be occurring if a user has chosen in their settings to NOT hide NSFW content.
However, I will also say that the blurred state is something that deserves its own user setting (i.e. so that a user can choose to NOT hide NSFW, but still want them blurred or not) - preferably with the granularity to set it for various sub-types of NSFW (e.g. porn, gore, etc…).
To my knowledge, currently kbin.social federates with all instances. Therefore on this instance kbin.social, where I have opted in to nsfw, I would like nsfw to organically show up on my All. If it isn’t showing up because no one is making any then that is fine, if it is being made and isn’t showing up despite me having opted in that is not fine and I will patiently wait until it is fixed. And just for the record, I have and would encourage everyone else to buy Ernest a coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/kbin
I’ve bought a coffee as well.
As to federation, no Kbin hasn’t really taken any stances yet, but that doesn’t mean they won’t in the future. But feature wise, Kbin is so new that nsfw specific features could be a long way off. I doubt even @ernest knows as I’m sure his life has been thrown a real curveball this month. If we’re still here in a couple years and there’s no extra nsfw features, then it’s reasonable to ask what’s up. Right now though? There’s so many missing features that you couldn’t realistically even list them all.
Hey, thanks :) Yes, that is a known issue. First, I need to address the moderation tools and sensitive content issue for sure. I’m actually working on it right now. But there are so many exciting new things from contributors right now that it’s not easy ;)
The most important thing is that we have 331 issues recorded. Now it’s just a matter of time :D

Hi, ernest!
If this is a known issue that you intend to address, and it’s just a matter of priorities, then I’m happy.
Everyone appreciates all the work you’ve been doing, and I hope you’re getting help to ease your burdens.
