Thanks for your feedback. Due to reasonable arguments, NSFL is banned.

Thank you for consulting the community. Also you might want to add it to the instance rules asap
Yes please ban it. Or maybe create another gore tag and let users automatically block or blur that content as they wish I guess that is the best of both worlds (Even though I persoinally cant find anything good in the "gore world" :) )
I think it should be banned since, as of now, there is no way to hide gore by default.
Let's say I'm browsing the instance and choose to explore some new communities, so I turn on the local filter. I (and I think all the people who are not into gore, which I suppose is the majority) do NOT want, even by mistake, to see gore in my feed, especially if I'm looking for "normal" porn.
Yeah, I could block the communities, but this would mean finding them, interacting with them, and then blocking them, which is not something I want to do.
This is also a good point. While i like the idea of having the title of this instance make sense (meaning having anything NSFW including gore) I also reckon you have a point in that we have no way of blocking gore by default. But maybe thats where more instances come in? like an instance called LemmyPorn or whatnot? I'm not sure.. its like the wild west out here!
This could be solved by introducing tags/flairs for communities (set by the instance's admin and mandatory for communities) which the users can use to filter the kind of communities they want/do not want to see. Does anyone know if lemmy devs are already planning to do this?
those guys are barely holding servers together atm, it will get worse over the next two days (and maybe longer) before it gets better, but i'm sure theyll get to it eventually. So for now I think we have to make do and just say that this instance is non-gore only, since we cant filter it out.
Yes - just that. Yes - ban gore.
I'm surprised that all the scat communities were banned as NSFL without any warning or discussion here. What's up with that?
According to our poll, we had already banned NSFL. We decided among the admins that scat content is within the scope of NSFL and therefore we banned it too.
This is not okay. Unlike gore which clearly has significant ethical issues, scat causes no harm and is simply disliked by many people. Scat is already banned in many places of discussion, meaning that people in this fetish are forced to gather in places where actual child porn and bestiality is, because they literally have no other choice.
Don't do this to us, please. The community did not ask for this. Please, throw us a lifeline. Don't make us go to a scummy instance full of creeps and actual pedophiles.
EDIT: How can I raise this with the admin team? I'd like to make my argument to repeal this decision and have you guys look at it one last time. We might be able to come to a happier solution ❤
forced to gather in places where actual child porn and bestiality is
Don’t make us go to a scummy instance full of creeps and actual pedophiles.
I don't think this is helping your argument in the way that you think it does.
It really should. If you feel like "people consensually shitting on eachother" is the same as "people raping children" then you need to realize there's a difference between " I don't like this" and "this is illegal, rape, and deeply damaging to society"
Check out the work of Dr. Jonathan Haidt.
You'll have to be a bit more specific as I don't have time to read all of his works... is there a specific book, theory, or argument your referencing here?
If you're too busy, din't feel compelled. There's a lot of material. Here is a decent place to start: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pmz10uQsTYE
I didn't say it was the same. The person above is saying people are "forced" to go to places with child porn and bestiality. I don't care how hard something is to get that I like I still wouldn't be caught dead on a site like that.
so if porn was not allowed on this site, and was only hosted on site with bestiality or CP categories you're argument is you would never look at porn ? people go to sketchy shitty sites all the time for porn thats not allowed in better spaces.
Yes. Is this supposed to be a difficult question to answer? I have zero interest in being on a website with those categories. I like porn and I'm into weird stuff, but I don't like it that much. I don't understand how that's a real question. If my interests were only found on sites with child porn and bestiality I would just do without. I would also start to re-think what I'm into if it's only found on those sites.
That still should have been communicated to the mods of those communities, rather than just banning with no notice.
How have these communities been banned without any notice? How are you better or different than Spez? I fully agree with what @Leanne is saying, scat is not ethically wrong, it's just disliked by people. You should have opened a dialogue about it instead of straight up banning it for a reason that doesn't even make sense. We do not deserve this.
Since the poll for allowing scat has finished, can you restore the deleted communities, or is all of our hardwork gone?
I like the idea of blocking until we have more granular filters. This instance will be more successful if it's not blocked by loads of instances, and I reckon allowing stuff like this will make the block choice too easy.
I have nothing against drawn gore, though it's not something I'm into myself, but I think others are right that the content filtering we have now isn't enough to allow users to avoid it if we do permit it.
If we can make our own patches to lemmy we could supply a nsfl tag which could be distinctly different to the nsfw tag in that it:
- Doesn't show to people who have nsfl disabled
- Doesn't federalize this content or share it outside of lemmynsfw, but then that would defeat the purpose of lemmy idk
I always felt like reddit should have added a separate nsfl toggle as it's in a whole other ballpark, maybe lemmy could implement it?
No... I don't understand why they would be banned.
I suppose you need to decide what is NSFW. Is it only the Lewd images people are posting? That's pretty tame. Are you going to accept nude/porn/hardcore porn/fetish/furry? Violence? Drugs? Nsfl can be nsfw.
So what is the purpose of this community?
agree. NSFW is such a broad thing to be a community. Atm we need to build specified communities for different topics. Like there could be a porn community and a gore community separately. and then go from there to more specific things like an amateur porn community, or to hentai, or fight videos etc.
For now tho definitely need to just pick one or the other. I cant imagine a porn/gore community being super successful cos those are two WILDLY different moods for most ppl
The instance and communities are different things. Communities can have their own rules about NSFW or NSFL contents. This community (!lemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com ) is only for updates about lemmynsfw.com. People can subscribe any community on lemmynsfw.com.
Now that we've made the distinction, what I want to ask here is should we block NSFL communities on the lennynsfw.com instance?
But dont posts from all communities in an instance show if you're browsing on local.
That could be hella jarring for someone who doesn't want to see gore. Imo there really should be a feature that differentiates nsfl and nsfw in lemmy.
Oh now i understand. Thanks for the explanation. In this case yes, I think both should be allowed, so people can make separate communities for each. Both porn and gore are considered NSFW so they both fall under the banner of our instance :D
Yes
