We need to be able to differentiate between NSFW and porn. (kbin.social)

A boob, a butt, or even some violence like one might see on the news anyway, I’m not freaked out about all that and I don’t feel the need to hide it from those around me usually… that’s all fine fine, but I don’t want porn on my feed like at all.

Editing for clarity here:

Those are all things that might get flagged NSFW that I don’t mind seeing in general. I’m not uptight about it, it’s just a little different to be inundated with hardcore pornography like… while on the train.

I joined a primarily social insurance, kbin.social. I am very open to what is in my feed, sometimes to the extremer ends of that. I just believe that porn is a separate thing entirely and should be separated in some way. I’m not opposed to porn, but there’s a reason it had its own room in the video store. And if you’re wanting to look at porn, there’s a good chance you’re ONLY looking for porn at that moment.

Most-of-ass on Instagram wouldn’t get you in trouble at work?

The nsfw tag is a catch-all by design, that’s the whole point. Your personal definitions of appropriate and not are irrelevant. Nude art would get me fired exactly the same as anything else that’s Not Safe For Work.

I see asses at work sometimes. Literally just need to not see porn or extreme gore.

Oh extreme gore is out, that's too far for you? You want a "just enough gore" tag in addition to your "just enough nude" tag?

Nope, literally just think a “porn” designation to filter out all content that is actually porn. This includes soft core porn, just all nudity, which is also how the law works because it’s illegal to show pornography to a minor but the rest of the nsfw category is down to a guardians discretion on what’s appropriate. It’s not a huge ask, you’re splitting hairs here, I just want an option filter out porn and that’s it.

But only what you define as porn.

What do minors and guardianship have to do with you seeing porn on the internet?

You’re not this thick and I know it.
