I'd rather have a "Would you like to hide all Sports related Content?" button than a "Would you like to hide all NSFW content?" button

    I’d love to be able to block an entire instance. @lemmynsfw has a tonne of creepy-ass communities dedicated to posting pictures of female celebrities. There’s never any sort of real content, just celebrities, sometimes in revealing clothes, and creepy titles like “beautiful” or “wow” or something like that.

    Was just scrolling through the All feed and saw one for Sadie Sink. The entire thing gives me the willies, it’s so gross.

      Pretty sure it’s mostly one user creating all those communities, too. Odd behavior.

      If you are using android, connect for lemmy can block instances. It is much more peaceful. It even blocks the comments from the users. Although you can have them show as you come across them if you so choose.

      This is horrible imo. I personally turned off NSFW since I don’t really care about missing out on gore or the likes.

      That is already possible, at least on the 2 apps I’ve used. Don’t know about the browser version, but most apps have this option.

      FYI: I use this usercript to block whole instances: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/469297-block-lemmy-instances You need to edit line 17

      Here adapted to work also with MLMYM (https://old.lemmy.world): https://pastebin.com/z0mShfDP

      The real content doesn’t appear in its feed when you’re not logged in (due to being NSFW), so it misleadingly seems like the celebrity stuff is the only content there. You need to visit specific communities such as !gonewild@lemmynsfw.com.

        I don’t want the real content, I don’t want any content from that place.

          Then why did you even browse it?

            I don’t. It shows up on the all feed.

              Understandable. In that case, blocking it is the best you can do.

        That really doesn’t change the ick-factor. Reese Witherspoon is probably in her 40s and it creeps me out just as much.

You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !showerthoughts@lemmy.world

A “Showerthought” is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you’re doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The most popular seem to be lighthearted clever little truths, hidden in daily life.

Here are some examples to inspire your own showerthoughts:

  • Both “200” and “160” are 2 minutes in microwave math
  • When you’re a kid, you don’t realize you’re also watching your mom and dad grow up.
  • More dreams have been destroyed by alarm clocks than anything else

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. No politics
    • If your topic is in a grey area, please phrase it to emphasize the fascinating aspects, not the dramatic aspects. You can do this by avoiding overly politicized terms such as “capitalism” and “communism”. If you must make comparisons, you can say something is different without saying something is better/worse.
    • A good place for politics is c/politicaldiscussion
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy’s Code of Conduct and the TOS

If you made it this far, showerthoughts is accepting new mods. This community is generally tame so its not a lot of work, but having a few more mods would help reports get addressed a little sooner.

Whats it like to be a mod? Reports just show up as messages in your Lemmy inbox, and if a different mod has already addressed the report, the message goes away and you never worry about it.
