I mean what comes after the @. I’m tired of seeing a bunch of lame porn from @lemmynsfw
I don’t think users can block an instance. But you can uncheck “show nsfw” in your settings.
Dang. I don’t mind seeing nsfw content. I just don’t want entire instances dedicated to it showing up in my feed.
I agree. I have it turned off for now because it was dumb seeing stupid porn, but I don’t mind reading about other adult topics, and self-tagging NSFW stuff is obviously capriciously applied. What would be inappropriate to some is not to others. It would be nice to be able to control that more granularly.
I’m hoping that levels of NSFW will be implemented so we have that control
You can block individual communities. It’s not perfect but it’s the only option through Lemmy for the time being. I think I remember seeing a ticket for being able to block instances at the user level, but idk how big of a priority that is rn.
In all likelyhood a lot of nsfw will be on the same instances. Not every server owner wants to deal with the hassle that comes with hosting that material.
If you use Ublock Origin, here’s a filter that will hide lemmynsfw posts on your main page. Filters should work the same on all major ad blockers, but I can’t vouch for that.
! 2023-06-21 https://lemmy.world lemmy.world##.post-listing:has-text(@lemmynsfw.com)ELI5 explaination:
the first line is just so Ublock can keep different filters and domains organized
lemmy.world## - only use this filter on this site
.post-listing - evaluate everything on the page with the class name post-listing
has-text(lemmynsfw.com) - the text we want to filter
Of course if the site gets updated and the layout changes, this filter won’t work anymore. I’m on VLemmy, so I can’t really test it on lemmyworld. Let me know if it doesn’t work. Cheers.

Go to kbin.social/d/lemmynsfw.com and click the block button in the right hand column. You can also subscibe to entire instances in the same way!
OP doesn’t use kbin
Yeah I realised where this was posted immediately after I commented
Wait, just realised you might well be on lemmy, in which case I have no idea but someone else might
Sorry, should have been https://kbin.social/d/lemmynsfw.com - I forgot you need the domain name and not the name of the instance. It’s a kbin thing though, not a lemmy thing. There might be a similar ability on lemmy but I don’t use it so I don’t know
Looks like lemmy doesn’t have that feature, but would be really nice.
I’m still seeing content from instances I’ve blocked, what’s with that?
A domain block isn’t the same as an instance block. You can get content from an instance that’s hosted on a different domain, so you will still see it. True instance blocking is a feature that’s in the works
My best amateur guess is that you just blocked a sublemmy (lets call it that) instead of the whole instance.
/No idea I’m afraid, I’m not a dev, just a user
