isn't posting untagged nsfw into general/meme communities against respecting consent? some people don't want sexual stuff on the timeline, yet your solution is that those people are pruders and should leave instead of encouraging nsfw posters to categorize their nsfw media properly.
if the rest of the fediverse can do it then i don't see why lemmy shouldn't.
Again, the nsfw you're talking about isn't porn, but this is a shitpost community. How many shitposts are you passing around the office? Do you think you should just block the comm and move on instead of making some of the people who made this community as successful as it is leave to start over? Again I'm replying to someone who wanted to fork this comm and start a new one. A thing that does absolutely nothing to touch the issue you want to talk about. You don't agree with the moderators of this comm on what constitutes NSFW, then make a new comm you moderate or block this one. It is that easy. If its too onerous for you to make your own comm then why are you comfortable demanding others do it for you? There are several instances that share your the fediverse should be entirely SFW view. You can try viewing from them if you like too.
this has nothing to do with an office or being opposed to nsfw because i'm opening lemmy in public. some of us just don't want to be involved with sexual stuff even if no one else is viewing my screen.
i replied to your comment because i don't agree with your expressed stance that we should let nsfw go unchecked and push away people who don't like that because they're apparently prudes. why should the onus be on people like that and not on people who don't use nsfw tags and evade blocks?
the original commenter's suggestion up top would mostly solve the issue. you disagreed with it, so i commented to disagree with your comment, and noted that i see this as a consent issue.
also i imagine moving to a sfw-only instance does nothing if the posts aren't tagged as not sfw. it's also not my goal. i don't mind having an option to unblur a nsfw post. but i find it problematic when it's effectively forced onto the timeline.
