Edit: just to be clear, I’m only talking about lemmy.blahaj.zone here. If you’re coming from Kbin or some other instance, this won’t affect you.
I have nothing against porn in general, but LemmyNSFW is a firehose of NSFW content, some of it offensive or toxic, and the admins seem to be shaky on whether they’re prepared for the content. It’s started showing up in my /all/ feed now, and I’m worried.
Essentially the entirety of Lemmy’s porn is getting uploaded to one instance, and I am not at all confident in their ability to moderate it. The idea of a massive instance like that that’s still so young and untested and still trying to figure out whether they are going to allow underage content or not being allowed on my feed makes me really uncomfortable. I could just disable NSFW, but not all NSFW is porn and not all of it comes from that instance.
In addition to the lack of moderation, things I’ve seen that seem to be allowed include: misogyny, slurs for trans people, objectification, straight up rape…
They don’t even have any system of verification for anyone posting on there so they could be spreading CSEM or revenge porn into people’s caches unknowingly. There’s a potential legal risk here too.
Defederating seems more than reasonable. LemmyNSFW is just way too lax on their policies. If people here want to look at porn, they can always make an alt account over there.
If you want to block entire domain in kbin, that’s possible, but I don’t know easy way to navigate to the domain page. If you enter the adress manually you can do it. So for example if you wanted to block lemmynsfw.com, you would navigate to page https://kbin.social/d/lemmynsfw.com and block it with the button in the sidebar of the domain page. Be warned though - if you visit this page you might see the content you wanted to block, so treat this link as NSFW. Also, from what I’ve seen - microblog posts from blocked domain may still appear, but if you don’t use microblog view this should be enough to avoid seeing posts from blocked domain
