For the uninitiated, generally NSFW is for sexual contents and NSFL is for gory contents. People may want to see one but not see the other at any time for any reason. I have seen this feature requested over the years in Reddit but it never happens. Maybe now some instance can finally implement it?
I don’t care about Reddit (or about growing Lemmy) as much as the average post I see in Lemmy, but if you wanted to migrate people from the former to the latter this is one of the easier ways to help do it. It’s one of those small quality of life things that are asked for periodically. If Lemmy had it it’d be mentioned in Reddit every time people are pissed with the site (which is every day for most sites, including Reddit). It’d be free
mouth to mouthword of mouth (being ESL is funny sometimes) publicity for LemmyMountains out of mole hills. Non issue
No
Omg this. Nsfw was ALWAYS not for WORK, nsfl errything else. Dont have to go too into specifics, thats up to subreddits to moderate. Dont sub to those stuff and don’t browse All, or filter shit.
Fuck i, called it subreddits jfc
It would be wonderful with something more granular than “NSFW”…
I would love if we got something even more granular like a "Content Warning: ".
Examples:
Content Warning: nudity
- might be a painting with nude people, might be a photo of nude people, in essence if it isn’t porn, but there’s exposed genitals, butts or breasts.Content Warning: porn
- you can probably guess…Content Warning: gore
- images with gore, people missing body parts, often dead as well.Content Warning: death
- images with people dying, but without gore.Content Warning: blood
- images with some blood, but no death or gore. (often seen in news articles)Content Warning: violence
- people fighting, but without turning bloody.
These could of course be expanded with many more categories if need be.
EDIT: added violence by request
At that point we get a tag system.
Content Warning: politics
,Content Warning: bad news
,Content Warning: dangerous cuteness
…Just use a color to denote content warnings
Make sure to make gore red and nudity green to fuck with all the colorblind people out there
☠️🍆
Genius. Absolute genius.
i like this one better.
Please add violence to the categories. Some videos ruin days
Sometimes it’s not even ruin days, there’s stuff that I don’t appreciate popping up when I’m eating for example
That’s NSFL
The first two and the last three are the same lol.
There really isn’t any need for tuning them even further. They’re both already niche enough as is. The people who are good with the two are good with both. The people good with the last three are ‘good’ with any. You genuinely cannot get any of them without the other lol.
Yeah, it’d be better to implement OP’s idea, see how it goes, and then see if there’s need for the others. Gradual changes help admins see what works best, I think. Follow the KISS: Keep It Simple, Supid.
The first two and the last three are the same
I read that as “all five are the same”. And I’m like damn, don’t want to work in a slaughterhouse if that’s true for you!
Intensity warning is a good thing. Though it does make tagging complicated, but in this case overlapping tags would do. blood-death and gore-death and simply death.
probably shouldn’t borrow the exact terms from fandom, but they have tag modifiers like ‘dead dove: do not eat’ which basically means this is an absolute celebration of the previous tag, so gore tag coupled with that tag is gore intensified to the max, while they also use tags ‘slight mentions of gore’ for only a bit of gore. but if you filter out gore both would still be filtered out.
AO3 runs on open source software and has a very robust tagging system.
Idk man, I think there’s a difference between a titty in a painting and triple anal piss porn
Can this be done with the hashtag tags? Does that functionality already support what OP is asking for?
The ActivityPub interface allows it to my knowledge. It’s just not widely used.
Mate we can’t even hide posts
(Sync for Lemmy has client side support for that)
As do Connect. Still, it should be a desktop feature, too.
Yeah connect has that too. I’d imagine other clients do as well.
Why do we need a different tag when NSFW and NSFL already exist?
NSFL doesn’t exist as a tag. Your only choice is to tag it NSFW.
Yes please and just call it what it is! “Brutal” and “sexual” feg. Because I for one work in a sex fight fetish porn production studio so to me all of this is very sfw.
Do you make those naked MMA matches that end in sex I’ve seen?
I bet you have some hella interesting workplace stories and hella banal, mundane ones
Having gone through the code a bit, the NSFW handling looks very baked in, so it’s not a small ask. The smart approach would be to add an arbitrary tag system and handle it that way.
Is that the smart approach, or the easier approach?
I just got done reading a whole diatribe on how everything sucks because the code for everything is just duck tape on top of duck tape.
I think it’s both. Instead of trying to update the codebase with one new database attributes for each conceivable way to tag content, you simply put in facilities to abstract that - “show only posts with tag foobar”, “hide all posts with tag foobar”.
I love it when my tape quacks.
FYI it’s duct tape. Duck Tape is a brand that sells a type of duct tape, among other tapes.
“Duck tape” actually has a longer history than “duct tape.” While there is also branded Duck™ tape, duck tape, as in adhesive cotton duck, has been around since the 1800s or so.
I actually already knew that. I think duck tape is more fun 😄
I’ve always thought, of all the options to warn us that clicking will put titties on our screen, that “not safe for work” was a bad choice.
Like, what if your work doesn’t care about titties? What about the tons of other times you wouldn’t want those to pop into your screen without warning, like when you’re on public transit, or sitting next to grandma?
I’d vote for “LEWD” vs “GORE” or something more clear - users can decide for themselves when it is or isn’t safe.
My job doesnt care.
Of course i cant just browse porn all day, but clicking a random picture onnreddit with boobs?
Nobody cares

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
We should be able to look at a little porn at work
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
I’m uhhh glad I don’t work in an environment where that would be tolerated by other employees
At this point isn’t that pretty much any work from home job?
I don’t think your coworkers at a work from home job would tolerate that much either quite frankly
Correct, if you work for e.g. Pornhub, NSFW might have a different meaning
Same if you work for the SEC.
I can just imagine the HR conversations at Pornhub. “Steve, we have reason to believe that you’ve been viewing non-pornographic material at work.”
I can imagine they don’t want accountants or IT people looking at porn while they work though. Their own websites are probably not filtered, but whether the work is for a porn site or a car manufacturer, you prefer them focussing on their work. For a content reviewer though, it’s a different story.
That being said, there is not enough money in the world that would convince me to become a content reviewer. The shit they have to sit through is often utterly vile and traumatizing. Here is an article about a facebook moderator as an example: https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-57088382
I was mostly joking, but yeah, being a content reviewer has got to be a soul crushing job. I can’t even imagine the shit you would see.
“Steve, your numbers are down. We have reason to believe you have not been viewing enough pornographic material at work.”
Reminds me of when new episodes of Rick and Morty were being posted on PornHub and they took them down.
And ffs, make them different colors
Not Suitable For Lemmy
That’s cute
Not as cute as you 😜
Why can’t people just
notlook at the name of the community and then easily conclude if it’s sexual content or gory content?Edit: Seems my English skills fucked me over.
Sometimes NSFW images are appropriate in otherwise SFW communities. For instance, imagine a community on exterior design that had a post with a picture of that building in Germany with the five-story-high penis on it. Or a community for desktop themes that has a post with nudes wallpaper. Or a community about a certain celebrity that posts pictures of her car wreck.
Then you would look at the community name and concluding that the image is about exterior design, but not something you should look at, at work.
I didn’t type my original post correctly.
Looking at pictures of external design is usually pretty safe to look at when you’re at work. I imagine architects do it all the time.
What building in Germany has a 5-story-tall schlong?
Search for “Friede sei mit Dir”
I follow the Ukrainian war. Blocking all NSFW blocks so much of the news.
I want to block porn, not news.
So the Ukrainian war posts should be tagged as NSFL then?
It would help differentiate from porn, yes.
The graphic ones should be. Videos of death and fighting, yes.
If it’s just politics, general news, or Russia acting like a baby, no.
Real answer? Because technology could easily do it for you if people tag posts in OP’s proposed way. Just one less thing for a viewer to have to think about.
It would also allow for different filters. Blur NSFW, but not nsfl, or vice versa. Or even only show post of one and hide others entirely, without having to block communities by hand.
Do we really need community names? I feel like we could just use the first line of the description
Osrs has f2p
It’s an old name :P

Going back to reddit r/WTF often had posts with either gore or nudity (or both), as an example.
That’s a good example.
I think most instances doesn’t allow gore though.
Why
Because people have the right to know what type of content they can masturbate to.
I thought that was already clear?
NSFL = Gore
NSFW = PornYeah but there is no nsfl tag
yes, and that’s why this post exists
But really, why? We already have the tags. Just type them out at the start of the post and it’s clear what kind of content it is. Do we really need to commit code to this?
because it can be used to automatically filter out content you want to see from content you don’t want to see
If you want to commit code, a better option would be to let me filter by post title keyword. That way I can filter out NSFW, NSFL, and any other words I don’t like.
no, because it would also filter out stuff like this post, that just discusses it, but the content being generally okay
Don’t be a contrarian for a second and think of the why yourself, it’s easy and good for your brain!
So leave it be.
Is this a protocol or a client issue? Would absolutely love to see it.
