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.

    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?

    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.
