Question: do I have to tag a post as NSFW if I am posting in an NSFW community?
Like, if I don't tag a post as NSFW does it still show up for people who don't want to see NSFW? Again, I'm only asking if this is necessary in NSFW communities. I know that I have to tag NSFW content in regular communities. But if I post in a community marked NSFW does it automatically mark the post as such or do I have to manually do it? I've got blur NSFW content turned on and it seems to be blurring the stuff in the community for me, but I wanna be certain that it's doing it everywhere that content is available like feeds and stuff.
Yes. It has to be tagged NSFW.
This is because NSFW posts still can appear in the All-feed.
All rules can be found here.
Why not make all posts from NSFW communities automatically tagged as NSFW?
While it is a great idea, I doubt that the Lemmy devs have time to implement that in the near future.
This is most likely dependent on what app you are using to view Lemmy. So the short answer is always mark it if you want to be sure.
Ahh, I see. Thanks for letting me know. Whelp, time to get the shovel I guess.
Maybe play around with this community. It's a NSFW community with some untagged posts in it.
In my experience, if a user has selected to not show NSFW, then posts in a NSFW community won't show to them (regardless of how the posts are tagged). I've also seen the inverse: NSFW posts from an untagged community with an account that wasn't supposed to see them.
How things are actually display though, is very dependent on what the user is using. They tend to err on the side of caution though (e.g. Voyager blurs everything from lemmynsfw, even the 'celebs' posts that are photos of fully-clothed women)
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
I gotcha, thanks for the info. I'll just tag the really spicy content as NSFW just in case. Though at least here on lemmy.world it seems to blur the content regardless of if the post is tagged if it was posted to an NSFW community.
