NSFW: NSFW content is permitted but it must be tagged and have content warnings. Anything that doesn't adhere to this will be removed. Content warnings should be added like: [penis], [explicit description of sex]. Non-sexualized breasts of any gender are not considered inappropriate and therefore do not need to be blurred/tagged.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact us on our matrix channel or email.

Please mark this as NSFW
Do mods not have the power to do that on lemmy?
No we do not. Why you might ask? Because the Lemmy's developers don't want to allow it because it's "a slippery slope"
dessalines:
I think this is ridiculous and that an ability to mark a comment as NSFW is not harming "user's integrity" but what can you do?
That's a ridiculous rationale. If the Lemmy developers actually cared about the integrity of users' posts, they wouldn't have released software without support for cryptographic signing.
Huh, I guess developing sublinks makes a lot more sense now.
Yes, moderation tools in general aren't that great on here, nor is there a lot of interest from the developers to improve them.
Most moderators rely on bots and scripts. I myself have written bash scripts to fetch all reports from instances using alts because reports don't federate.
Interesting, we also have the same thing where reports and private messages to bots are crawled to a specified matrix chat to keep track of things.
I imagine lemmy should have a whole RPG system to tag and sort not just by mods but by community feedback too. Basically an extension of up or downvoting that adds useful tags.
that doesn't make any sense whatsoever.
