Can we get a consensus on whether our community should de-federate with servers that host loli? I personally think we should block them, and if that ends up not being the consensus here then I’ll probably sign up on another server. I hope we can all agree to set that boundary though because I like it here and it seems otherwise pretty cool.

    No need to defederate. I just went and blocked loli and related communities that popped up. I will never see them again.

    So, my vote is NAY.

      Federation is still young.

      It may be easy to individually block communities now but what about in a few months/years when there are potentially 10x more communities across 10x more instances?

      How intimidating would it be for a new user to have to go through 100+ communities and block them all individually instead of just blocking 5-10 instances?

        You click the three dots at the bottom-right corner of a post/comment and then click 🚫 to block the community/poster.

        Personally, I’m fine with a NSFW tag, and would hope that NSFW instances respect other instances enough to properly tag stuff.

        Any instance with a gore community? Nah, screw that noise. Add it to the block list.

          Tbh I think an instance not enforcing tagging content as nsfw is probably very strong grounds for blocking imo

        I would block gore communities on a personal level, but there’s no need to do so on a server level unless they’re doing something worth defederating for, like any of the following:

        • posting cp
        • using their server to DoS/DDoS others
        • dox-ing people
        • allowing their users to harass others AND refusing to punish such behavior
        • same as above except for ban evasion

        I’d like to have a force-nsfw option for communities that don’t enforce proper usage of the NSFW tag, but for now I’d have to block them most likely.

            I mean I should hope it’d be blurred out on All

              with a content warning or without? Blurring is useful for lewd content imo where you don’t suffer when clicking it, it just hides for the public when reading in train. But I don’t want content just blurred that is literally mentally scarring to the average user.
