I’m talking about this sort of thing. Like clearly I wouldn’t want someone to see that on my phone in the office or when I’m sat on a bus.

However there seems be a lot of these that aren’t filtered out by nsfw settings, when a similar picture of a woman would be, so it seems this is a deliberate feature I might not be understanding.

Discuss.

    Did you look at the image?

    She’s not being sexual or suggestive.

      Are you serious? She’s mostly naked. Look at the body language and facial expression.

      And it’s just the woman in a void, unlike the Olympics where they’re people doing stuff.

        If a smile and blushing is suggestive to you, I suggest that you never leave your house. Too many temptations out there my guy.

        And if a bra and shorts qualifies as “mostly naked” then I suggest that you don’t leave your house between the months of May and October.

        I see your other reply below, so I don’t know if this is before or after the other one (which is an honest take).

      Good luck explaining that to HR or trying to come up with a non-creepy reason for viewing that on your computer at work.

        Solution: Don’t look at Lemmy at work.

        I don’t look at Facebook, use Google for non-work needs, and I don’t use social media.

        I check my email but honestly I shouldn’t even do that.

        I work in IT. They can see everything you type, everything on your screen, and can silently record video and audio. It’s not your computer, it’s theirs, and they are completely within their rights under the law.

      My guy. Do I have to explain to how “I was reading about the olympics” is a whole other category than “I was looking at anime girls”? Maybe it shouldn’t be, but that’s not the world we live in.

        Where do you draw the line?

        The platform has its own governance.
        Personally, I feel like social media at work is inappropriate.

        If you’re watching the Summer Olympics, and only watch the events where they’re scantily clad (and commonly underage), maybe not watch that at work either.

        As far as the tag? If it’s not showing nipples, isn’t sexual in nature, or suggestive, I personally don’t see why it should unless you go back and puritanically apply the tag anything anyone could be offended. And at that point - what do we have left?

        Look, I can’t control what people define as sexual. It is possible to block communities. Tailor it to fit your preferences. Heck why not make a second profile that is specific to when you’re not at work? And one that blocks out all but the news and wholesome content for work?

        I don’t see why this should be a one-fits-all process. We’re trying that out right now, with the supreme court. (Assuming that you live in the US)

          Honestly I lost track of what the original context was (irony) and was just mad that people are like “no, no, half naked anime girls are totally on the same level as Olympic athletes”

          It’s up to the community what they want to mark as NSFW. I personally think stuff like the linked image are on the far side of NSFW.
