We have over a period of time gotten repeated reports of unmarked NSFW posts in certain communities. All of these communities share the same singular mod, who have shown indifference when content has been reported. As leaving NSFW posts unmarked is against our instance rules, we have moved to set the rule-breaking communities to hidden.

Those of you who subscribe to hidden communities will continue to see them as normal, for everyone else these communities will look empty and hidden from c/all.

The newly hidden communities are:

We would also like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that programming.dev’s policy is to by default hide political communities, pornographic communities and communities hosting bot spam. Users seeking such content can subscribe to hidden communities so see them as normal.

Just recently we also went ahead and hid communities from lemmygrad due to the politics clause.

As always we encourage our local users to report content that break our instance rules. All content you report are seen by the admin team and helps inform the team of what’s going on across the fediverse.

    You are simply refusing to tag content which is Not Suitable For Work as NSFW, polluting other people’s streams with your “mildy arousing” pictures of young girls.

    And yes, you are completely indifferent to the effect on the wider fediverse of thousands of users because you’re working so tirelessly to meet the untagged fetish of your (checks numbers) 36 upvoters on the post linked above.

    It’s REALLY selfish of you.

      If you’re referring to the comment by the admin, they actually linked three posts.

      Their votecounts are 132, 89, and 36. (One of which I flipped to NSFW due to it being pointed out)

      I wouldn’t care if I all I got was one upvote aside from my own. [email protected] is proof of that.

      You might have a point if I were drowning in downvotes and reports. But I’m not.

      But if I were, I absolutely would change how I do things.

        You’re not getting downvoted and reported, you’re getting your communities blocked, as per advice I think you handed out yourself in the “IT’S NOT MY PROBLEM, IT’S YOUR PROBLEM. CURATE YOUR OWN FEED” phase which is why I have to be signed in on lemmy at work, which I’d rather not.

        You might have a point if I were drowning in downvotes and reports. But I’m not. But if I were, I absolutely would change how I do things.

        Whole instances hiding your content because of persistent complaints and you pretend there’s no issue.

        You’ll respond with all kinds of evasions but you won’t accept that you’re polluting the fediverse with your untagged NSFW “mildly arousing” busty teen-style girl cartoons.

        NSFW means Not Suitable For Work. Please use it. Please.

        But no, you are utterly selfish and won’t listen.

        One person upvoting your content justifies everything to you.

        Selfish.

          Please use it. Please.

          Are you missing the part where I literally do?

          Whole instances hiding your content because of persistent complaints

          I’ve gotten reports from exactly one user on programming.dev. I barely get reports in general. Despite consistent daily posting for over a year.

          IT’S NOT MY PROBLEM, IT’S YOUR PROBLEM. CURATE YOUR OWN FEED

          Exactly. My content isn’t offensive, and anything clearly more risque I DO TAG. So if the content isn’t for you, you should block it the same way I block music communities, because I’m not interested.

            “IT’S YOUR PROBLEM”

            Exactly

            And you took exception to me saying you were indifferent?!

            NSFW means Not Suitable For Work. Please use it. Please.

            Are you missing the part where I literally do?

            Yup. There’s a shitton of pedo-adjacent crap you posted without a NSFW tag. The scantily clad busty teen-style cartoons. You’re right here arguing against tagging it. Yeah, I’m missing you tagging it. We wouldn’t be arguing if you agreed to tag it. WTF?

            Your remark about music communities is so off the point, because, and here’s the thing: it’s fine for work.

              And you took exception to me saying you were indifferent?!

              I am anything but indifferent when it comes to how to operate my corner of the fediverse.

              But when the problem isn’t mine to solve, yes? Would you expect me to be vegetarian just in case the person next to me in a restaurant doesn’t want to see anyone eating meat?

              We wouldn’t be arguing if you agreed to tag it.

              So start reporting. I have and will consider every report I get. I use both votes and reports to gauge where the line is so as to offend as few as possible. When I do get reports I flip the tag or remove a post until it is tagged, more often than not. And as I keep telling you, I DO TAG THINGS FROM THE START.

              Provided the report is even close to reasonable. Some people seem to think every anime woman is underage or deliberately intended to appear as such, and that all depictions of them are solely for imagining immoral acts.

              Stuff like “shitton of pedo-adjacent crap” and “scantily clad busty teen-style cartoons” makes me pretty sure you are one such person.

                scantily clad busty teen-style cartoons … solely for …

                “mildly arousing”

                This you?

                  You’re pulling those two words from the second rule in some of my communities.

                  No nudity or especially lewd content, keep things merely mildy arousing.

                  Which forbids everything more than mildly arousing, and invites literally everything less than that.

                    Can’t help wondering what you’re deleting here.

                I would expect you to put the word “chicken” on your chicken nuggets, and not argue that they had tofu in them or that they belonged in the vegan isle at the supermarket.

                  No.

                  You’re asking me to label all the drinks as hard liquir, no matter what the actual alcohol content is.

                  And I’m telling you some of the stuff doesn’t even contain any, and the stuff that does, has a wide range of percentages.

                    Yes, I’m asking you to label all the drinks that contain alcohol with the word alcohol. Just that.

                    Everything that’s Not Suitable For Work as NSFW. Simple.

      How many more times can you beat this horse? It’s thoroughly dead. Whinging about it as much and as repetitively as you have chosen to makes you seem less “concerned citizen” and more “entitled snot.”

      Finish clutching your pearls, then curate your own feed. And stop expecting everyone else to do it for you. Your sensibilities won’t always line up directly with the world around you, but repeatedly haranguing someone else about it won’t solve matters for anyone.
