@pixelfed there is some users who does not want to be in an environnement where NSFW content can be easily accessible. Even if you are in a perfect world (we are’nt) where all users mark the right content as NSFW, some users will simply go elsewhere who is more ”family-safe”. And a user might just avoid to open a site/app in a public place (example: in public transit) just to avoid the embarrassment of having NSFW stuff on the screen while kids could be around. 4 comments
 @xavsworld @pixelfed there is that risk, but provided the app allows other Pixelfed instances which could set themselves up as family safe then folk who have concerns can just set their app to only use those instances (in the same way you can often lock a TV set or other device if you are going to let kids use it unsupervised..) on Fediverse there isn't "just one site", there''s literally thousands of them, and whilst most federate with one another, this can be limited in various ways (as can the federation of individual posts). So its possible to lock down an app or posts as the user wishes... |

@pixelfed An other tricky thing: it’s opens the door to a moderation nightmare. Ex.: How old the subject on the photo is? Sometimes, it’s not easy to say.
And don’t be wrong, cauz the hosting provider (who might just not allow some type of NSFW content in it’s ToS) can suspend or terminate the account where the site is hosted on.
