Apologies for the rant
We really need a thrid tag. (And NSFL to be a supported tag/filter feature like nsfw)
It should have been;
- NSFW = anything you wouldn’t wan’t your boss/coworker/stranger in public to see.
- NSFM = not safe for minors; in other words, porn.
- NSFL = gore, death, etc.
Theres no way anyone will agree to change nsfw now, so we’ll have to go for something else. I propose;
- NSFP = not safe for public. This is for things like “sexy pics”, dark, potty, or sex humor (pretty much all of C&H), and that “ball vasectamy switch” post from eailer. It’s a funny post, but personally I don’t want a detailed 3D rendering of balls showing up while scrolling in public.
Edits to include link to the ball post I referenced, and an example community that I belive would fall under my NSFP tag (Cyanide abd Happiness). https://lemm.ee/c/cyanideandhappiness Plus general spelling and grammar fixes as I find them.
Im good with NSF work/public/minors being the same, since they basically have the same limitations, but I agree with adding NSFL
My single biggest disappointment with Lemmy is that they didn’t fix the glaring NSFW/NSFL issue.
What do you mean?
NSFL (Not Safe For Life) typically means stuff like gruesome injuries, blood and gore, or possibly fatalities
Which is different from NSFW, because sometimes you want to hear a dirty joke, bit you could do without seeing the aftermath of a Meat Crayon
So the issue is that there is only NSFW label and no NSFL label?
Young me: what the heck is a beheading?
Oh…
The early internet was a wild place.
Yeah, the old internet was rotten to the core.
