This still baffles me, but I guess it's good for federation?
(i.imgflip.com)
A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.
Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".
Getting started on Fediverse;
Yeah, I'm fine with the admins using some due diligence. There is some wild s*** out there that no one needs to see terrible and grotesque without warning. The most recent example that I came across was AI generated porn of "jailbait."
Speaking only for myself but if content like that shows up in my feed I will not continue using Lemmy. So I am appreciative of the admins being proactive and if there's something I want to find I'll search for it but the example that I quoted showing up in my feed is absolutely unacceptable to me.
I'm not saying that piracy rises to the level of the quoted example but I don't manage the server and I'm not willing to manage a server so if there are people out there willing to do it to spare me from nefarious things then power to them. They have to do what's right and legal.
Why don't you just block the communities yourself?
You have the ability to do that, but instead you're demanding that the instance admins take the choice away from you?
This is some nanny state shit. It's like saying "I don't want to see morally qiestionable things like drag shows, the government should ban them!" Like just block it and don't fucking go there if you don't want to see it. Don't advocate for taking the choice away from everyone.
