    I’d love to be able to block an entire instance. @lemmynsfw has a tonne of creepy-ass communities dedicated to posting pictures of female celebrities. There’s never any sort of real content, just celebrities, sometimes in revealing clothes, and creepy titles like “beautiful” or “wow” or something like that.

    Was just scrolling through the All feed and saw one for Sadie Sink. The entire thing gives me the willies, it’s so gross.

      Pretty sure it’s mostly one user creating all those communities, too. Odd behavior.

      If you are using android, connect for lemmy can block instances. It is much more peaceful. It even blocks the comments from the users. Although you can have them show as you come across them if you so choose.

      That is already possible, at least on the 2 apps I’ve used. Don’t know about the browser version, but most apps have this option.

      This is horrible imo. I personally turned off NSFW since I don’t really care about missing out on gore or the likes.

        I have NSFW off, as far as I know those communities aren’t NSFW. They’re just incredibly creepy, since it’s obviously ogle material and not some sort of like, fan community.

      The real content doesn’t appear in its feed when you’re not logged in (due to being NSFW), so it misleadingly seems like the celebrity stuff is the only content there. You need to visit specific communities such as [email protected].

        I don’t want the real content, I don’t want any content from that place.

            I don’t. It shows up on the all feed.

              Understandable. In that case, blocking it is the best you can do.

        That really doesn’t change the ick-factor. Reese Witherspoon is probably in her 40s and it creeps me out just as much.
