There have been multiple accounts created with the sole purpose of posting advertisement posts or replies containing unsolicited advertising.

Now that we're finally out of reddit, can we finally get different tag for NSFW and NSFL?

For the uninitiated, generally NSFW is for sexual contents and NSFL is for gory contents. People may want to see one but not see the other at any time for any reason. I have seen this feature requested over the years in Reddit but it never happens. Maybe now some instance can finally implement it?

I would have thought that such a feature would be completely uncontroversial. Really weird that some people seem resistant to it.

Some people get off on shocking others with dehumanizing gore etc. when they thought they were in for a dick pick at worst.

Chainweasel ,

Most of the resistance to it on Reddit was because NSFL content was technically not allowed on the site at all and adding a specific tag for NSFL material could be seen at legitimizing it. But they didn’t heavily moderate it either so I don’t see the point in refusing a tag for it if they’re not going to do anything about it themselves either.
What really blows my mind though is the subset of people that want a NSFW tag to mean Gore/Death and a separate PORN tag for titties and such. I mean, we already have established terms for those so why not stick with what everyone already knows them by?

I think the Supreme Court decided this issue in Bush v. Gore, and it’s been controversial ever since.

I don’t care about Reddit (or about growing Lemmy) as much as the average post I see in Lemmy, but if you wanted to migrate people from the former to the latter this is one of the easier ways to help do it. It’s one of those small quality of life things that are asked for periodically. If Lemmy had it it’d be mentioned in Reddit every time people are pissed with the site (which is every day for most sites, including Reddit). It’d be free mouth to mouth word of mouth (being ESL is funny sometimes) publicity for Lemmy

DBT ,

Why do we need a different tag when NSFW and NSFL already exist?

McNasty ,

NSFL doesn’t exist as a tag. Your only choice is to tag it NSFW.

Cornpop ,

Why

prettybunnys ,

Don’t be a contrarian for a second and think of the why yourself, it’s easy and good for your brain!

Cornpop ,

So leave it be.

Because people have the right to know what type of content they can masturbate to.

Bonehead ,

I thought that was already clear?

NSFL = Gore
NSFW = Porn

SkaveRat ,

yes, and that’s why this post exists

Bonehead ,

But really, why? We already have the tags. Just type them out at the start of the post and it's clear what kind of content it is. Do we really need to commit code to this?

SkaveRat ,

because it can be used to automatically filter out content you want to see from content you don’t want to see

Bonehead ,

If you want to commit code, a better option would be to let me filter by post title keyword. That way I can filter out NSFW, NSFL, and any other words I don't like.

SkaveRat ,

no, because it would also filter out stuff like this post, that just discusses it, but the content being generally okay

calavera ,

Yeah but there is no nsfl tag

Can this be done with the hashtag tags? Does that functionality already support what OP is asking for?

Magesticles ,

This is a good idea, anyone who thinks otherwise hasn’t stumbled upon a guy getting his head chopped off when they didn’t want to see it.

Is this a protocol or a client issue? Would absolutely love to see it.

The ActivityPub interface allows it to my knowledge. It's just not widely used.
