Tldr lower. So there’s (yet again) another flurry of communities that are all crossposting each other’s content with this hentai stuff.
Aside from a lot of this being made with AI, it is in essence soft porn and I don’t want it in /all.
I usually write a comment under such posts saying
Set your comm to NSFW pls
Rarely the mod write “Done” and that’s it. Often it is downvoted, and now it’s also just removed by mod for (I wouldn’t know the reason as it’s on a different instance to mine)

TLDR; I don’t want my all feed to be a soft porn feed, is there anyway of not having these hentai soft porn communities in all, apart from individually blocking them (which doesn’t really work, as they keep making more communities).
Well since you obviously didn’t open the link, it’s a girl in a fully covered bikini. Literally not softcore anything, it’s as racy as sports illustrated.
… where do you work that sports illustrated isn’t considered NSFW? Seriously I’d get fired out of a cannon if I was caught browsing it at work, this seems kinda disingenuous to imply it’s not NSFW just because it’s not explicit.
Why does your work have cannons
Why are they human-sized barrels
and finally
How do i get a job there
It wasn’t in my building, but the maintenance building was on the same campus and they were for triggering avalanches. I think you’d probably have to be chopped up pretty fine to fit in the ones at work (which I think we can all agree would be NSFW content…) but you could probably manage it. And man, IDK. The DOT howitzers teams are never hiring, believe me I check regularly.
I’ve seen worse images as people’s office wallpaper/screensaver.
Okay, but you do understand that most people don’t work in an environment where that would be considered at all acceptable right?
I’m not sure. Most people are in China and India and I know little about their office culture.
It’s not much different from western cultures, though india does have a problem with sexism in (and outside of) the workplace. But are you really arguing demographic semantics to avoid the point at hand?
As I said, I regularly seen bikini picture and the like on office computers, so yes, I think it’s acceptable in “western culture”. Maybe not in some of the more puritan countries or large corporations, but in general, yes.
Also the term NSFW isn’t defined by what is literally allowed at workplaces, so the entire argument is pointless. It’s a tag for porn and gore. Bikini pictures aren’t porn.
It’s… literally “Not Safe For Work”. There’s no formal definition, let alone one beyond “not safe to have at work”. It was a usenet appelation applied to content you don’t want your boss seeing you browsing, it’s never evern been explicitly about porn? It’s not exactly hardline censorship to want tagging guidlines to be followed. At the moment, /all is the best way to find new communities to subscribe to. It’s not unreasonable to ask people not to complain about the content they find there, but since this is the one single content filter common to lemmy, it’s also not unreasonable to ask people to use it?
Despite what the letters literally stand for or where it’s from, it doesn’t actually mean that (anymore). If it did for most people almost any media would be “NSFW”. Most people would get in trouble for watching a movie or playing video games at work, regardless of content. That’s obviously a useless definition.
Since it was popularized on reddit and other social media the tag now defacto means porn/gore. That’s how the vast majority of people uses it and that’s how I think it should be used.
And of course people can complain. But well, sometimes the complain might just fall on deaf ears. And in the case if demanding bikini pictures be tagged as NSFW, I think rightfully so.
It’s legally sold to minors, available in grocery stores, hell I’ve seen them sitting on a rack in doctor’s offices.
NSFW is the terminology we use for actual explicit material, that’s the point. It’s a shorthand. Getting overly literal about how ‘work’ should be applied to the context is like arguing that all FPS games are actually RPGs because you’re ‘playing the role’ of some character.
