A boob, a butt, or even some violence like one might see on the news anyway, I’m not freaked out about all that and I don’t feel the need to hide it from those around me usually… that’s all fine fine, but I don’t want porn on my feed like at all.

Editing for clarity here:

Those are all things that might get flagged NSFW that I don’t mind seeing in general. I’m not uptight about it, it’s just a little different to be inundated with hardcore pornography like… while on the train.

I joined a primarily social insurance, kbin.social. I am very open to what is in my feed, sometimes to the extremer ends of that. I just believe that porn is a separate thing entirely and should be separated in some way. I’m not opposed to porn, but there’s a reason it had its own room in the video store. And if you’re wanting to look at porn, there’s a good chance you’re ONLY looking for porn at that moment.

    In what context are tits, ass, and people getting blown into pieces acceptable, but “porn” is not? You’re more comfortable with seeing a guy get his head shot off than you are with sex?

    If you don’t want to see hardcore porn on your feed, don’t subscribe to hardcore porn communities. I don’t want to see gore, so I don’t sub to gore.

      I have artful nude line drawings in my house for all to see. People post most-of-butt pics on Instagram all day. That’s different from jack-off material.

        Most-of-ass on Instagram wouldn’t get you in trouble at work?

        The nsfw tag is a catch-all by design, that’s the whole point. Your personal definitions of appropriate and not are irrelevant. Nude art would get me fired exactly the same as anything else that’s Not Safe For Work.

            Oh extreme gore is out, that’s too far for you? You want a “just enough gore” tag in addition to your “just enough nude” tag?

              Nope, literally just think a “porn” designation to filter out all content that is actually porn. This includes soft core porn, just all nudity, which is also how the law works because it’s illegal to show pornography to a minor but the rest of the nsfw category is down to a guardians discretion on what’s appropriate. It’s not a huge ask, you’re splitting hairs here, I just want an option filter out porn and that’s it.

                But only what you define as porn.

                which is also how the law works because it’s illegal to show pornography to a minor but the rest of the nsfw category is down to a guardians discretion on what’s appropriate

                What do minors and guardianship have to do with you seeing porn on the internet?

      That unfortunately is not how browsing ‘All’ works. You see subs that users on your instance subscribe to.

        The point of the nsfw tag is to keep you from getting fired. It turns off everything that could get you fired. Further tuning of your experience is the whole point of subscribing to distinct communities. When you go to all, you’re literally asking to see it all.

        I’m not opposed to granular tagging, I just disagree that we need separate tags for boobs and porn. How much do clinical boob pictures intersect with hardcore porn when you’re browsing all? And what about porn communities all about boobs?

        It was almost never implemented in any useful manner, but flair filled this role on Reddit. Nsfw is the catch all that saves your job, flair tells you what it is.

          I never asked for a boobs tag. I was stating that I’m not personally offended if a stray nipple appears in my feed. But overall, porn, including most nudity, should be able to be filtered from the feed while still receiving content from subs I haven’t subscribed to.
