I feel it's a good idea for those building native clients for Lemmy implement projects like these to run offline inferences on feed content for the time-being. To cover content that are not marked NSFW and should be.

What does everyone think, about enforcing further censorship, especially in open-source clients, on the client side as long as it pertains to this type of content?

Edit:

There's also this, but it takes a bit more effort to implement properly. And provides a hash that can be used for reporting needs. https://github.com/AsuharietYgvar/AppleNeuralHash2ONNX .

It's an interesting idea, and given the direction some economies are moving (looking at you EU & UK) something like this is likely going to feature whether we like it or not. The question for me however is what is the nature of the training data? What some places consider "porn" (Saudi Arabia, the Vatican, the US) is just people's bodies in more civilised places. Facebook's classic "free the nipple" campaign is an excellent example here: why should anyone trust that this software's opinion aligns with their own?
