No thank you,
blocked the bot user + community.
One of the nice features of the Fediverse, though not one I use too often.
I use it very often since I tend to browse the "All" section,
however that needs blocking and post filtering to keep unwanted content out.
a few days ago I tried browsing the All feed from my alt account and was... quickly back to my 'Subscribed' only mode ;)
There was so much porn/erotic and bizarre stuff, not even mentioning low effort content. I did not remember there had been that much porn last time I checked. Don't get me wrong, people are more than welcome to share and enjoy whatever they fancy but now even more than before I still think the 'All' timeline should come with an explicit and very visible warning saying that unlike with more centralized social media there is almost no filtering and no control of the type of content that is shared and that one will be exposed to stuff they don't like.
Is NSFW content enabled on your alt?
Also, Jlailu defederates lemmynsfw.com IIRC
I hear you.
Personally I mostly browse through Eternity,
which easily allows to block NSFW content :)
Makes sense. I almost exclusively browse /subscribed, and rarely check /all.
You might miss out on new/interesting communities that way though :)
Perhaps, but that is a risk I'm willing to take. I already have more communities than I can keep up with, and I'm also subscribed to [email protected] and [email protected], so I see a fair number of new communities :)
