Good hope the child porn posting stops with that.
I have not seen any of that and I sort by All.
With nsfw on? I do as well, but I usually have nsfw off
It wasn’t marked NSFW…
Oh yeah, that'd be a problem...
Child porn? Meh.
Not marking it NSFW? WHOA THERE BUB!
I sort by new in all, I guess I just got lucky I didn't come across it.
Yeah same here honestly. I don't have NSFW blocked either.
Not long after joining Lemmy, I was on the less fortunate side of things and ran into a troll post. I haven't seen any of that horrid stuff on Lemmy since then, I assume the admins and mods have been dealing with it first hand... ☹️ hope they are OK, it isn't good for anyone mentally.
Same, and I'm on all the time.
Oh Christ, really? That's just sickening. I often sort by new, sounds like I've been very lucky to miss it entirely...
Yeah i had the unpleasant encounter several times by now...
I'm guessing they're not even flagging that shit as NSFW? I've been using liftoff and have the NSFW stuff hidden. I haven't run into of it yet but that's fucked up, hopefully it gets under control with this.
Maybe mods of each section can turn on manual approvals of submissions?
Manually approving submissions would be even more work. And shits being posted everywhere.
And no, the ones i had a unpleasant encounter with weren't flaired nsfw.
Isn't there a tool (possible free) by Google I think that detects abusive material like this?

Eh... I don't think we should give up our privacy because one or two bastards are doing that shit...
I agree, everything on Lemmy is public for all to see, that's the nature of the Fediverse. Nothing here is really private, even vote counts since Admins of any self hosted server can see them, or Kbin which reveals them publicly for all.
Even DMs don't have it, which is why it nags you to use Matrix for secure DMs.
To combat this until there is something in place to automate blocking it. Manually approval might just be the only way to deal with it for now. Places can add more moderators.
Manual approval would mean that mods have to see all that shit to block it... That's not the right solution imo
They'll end up having to see it anyways to remove it, and by that point more than just the mods would have seen it...
Are you serious? Holy shit. I haven’t seen any at all. But just the thought that someone is posting it. I hate people sometimes.
Big incident last night
