Confused Reddit Users After Coming to Lemmy (Apparently)

60 comments

Fighting with furry and anime porn is the bane of my existence on Lemmy. You block one instance, another three pop up.
- I've managed to block most of it. The mere mention of yiff makes my skin crawl.
  
  Yiff uwu
  
  You realize furries run the Internet right?
- Embrace the porn, I guess.
  
  This is the way.
- Weird, I've not seen anything like that for maybe 6 months
  
  Same, what Lemmy is that user browsing? I don’t see any furry stuff on /all/.
- I pretty much never see porn show up for me in all. I get a bunch of communities showing pictures of partially clad women I have to block but that's it. Did you disable NSFW?
- I'm having none of that, what kind of content are you searching for it to be impossible?
  
  Not OP but had same problem...simply scrolled All and had to block around 7-10 of these...but that was a few months ago and now it's silent so dunno
  
  I think lemm.ee has no subscribers to those communities so we don't see it. I'm on the same instance as you and have the same experience.
- Oh my god! That's disgusting. Furry and anime porn on Lemmy? Where? Where do they post those?
  
  Oh you know, on certain instances
  
  Why do you want to know? 😏😏😏
- On Voyager with my sh.itjust.works account with nsfw toggled off and I don’t see any furry or porn.
  I am pleased with this.
- Accept your life path waifu
- Lemmy doesn't show you the communities you want, it shows you the communities you need
- Block ani.social, yiffit, and pawb.social, turn off NSFW posts and you'll be 99% there. There's a few anime .world communities but they're easy enough to block
- I browse all on Lemmy way more than I did on Reddit. The porn blocking game of whack-a-Hydra is constant.
- There has got to be a Whack-A-Mole joke in here somewhere.
  But yeah… same bud.
  
  Whack off a mole?
- I haven't seen any in ages. I think I blocked 2-3 instances at least, though. Anyway, there's hope! It can be done.
- "Why do feet pics keep popping up? I specifically blocked that entire community."
- I don’t see any at all! I think that’s because I’ve blocked NSFW instances by default
- Crazy that a character from The Simpsons has such a large following.

One of the big features lemmy is missing is standardized tags for communities that you can block. So a community can be tagged "porn," "sports," or "politics" and you can then search by our block communities by tag. That would fix this.
- Throw it on the tracker on GitHub.
  
  There's an RFC for (per post?) tags but not sure what ever happened to that
- Do you tag all communities "linux"?
- It would also be amazing if there was something like a unique post ID that could be used when posting to multiple communities/servers and just combine the discussions in the client instead of seeing a chunk of 5 of the same link

the advertisement that brought them here in the first place
- Mind explaining what happened?
  
  As for Peggy Bundy's ad it's in reference to reddit putting ads everywhere from this post https://lemmy.world/post/14695586
  Yesterday I was reading a thread here about how people came from reddit and were turned off from all the furry and anime content, I tried to find it but can't right now. Fwiw I have no problem with furries and I blocked the anime stuff I didn't care for, it's just a shitpost

All I'm interested in is hooters, hooters, yum yum yum
- Lie when she's aching, lie when she's waking, lie when you know she's faking. Lie, sell shoes, and lie.
  The Bundy Credo.
  
  Can I get a Whoa Bundy?
- Hooters, hooters, on a girl that's- no wait...
  
  On a pup that's perplexed

The porn on Lemmy is a dumpster fire compared to Reddit, but then if there wasn’t any porn I’d be fine, my spank bank is bursting at the seams as it is

Hah, if that were accurate then Wags would be a dude.
