      This is the answer. It comes with the territory when you have a demographic that is nerdy and terminally online.

      This demo has more pros than cons, but I do find myself using the “block community” option liberally.

        It seems like there needs to be additional community tags based on subject matter so you can block that tag rather than having to individually block a million communities or having to block an entire instance which you may not want to do.

          Hear hear!

          My wife saw me trying to block some big booby anime stuff and assumed I was browsing the community. I’m in my mid 40s guys, it’s not ok.

          Also why do they always look ashamed of their boobs? They’re huge! You’d think they’d be proud.

      I’ve been a “Linux nerd” since Red Hat’s Halloween release back in the nineties. I attest that I am not, not have I ever been, a furry nor have I ever been that into anime. That said, I appreciate good Hentai. If done well, it can be an impressive mix of art and erotica. But it’s mostly big tiddy trans furry pegging or giant tiddy tentacle sex posted here. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ ͡⁠°⁠ ͜⁠ʖ⁠ ͡⁠°⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

      Why ‘Linux / IT’ guys? Is that really the demographic or the perceived demographic? I would consider myself a Linux / IT guy, but I’m not ever seeing furry things in linux tutorials for example. Just surprised that was the ‘go to’ group you listed as the demographic.

    Better question is what are you doing to see so much hentai. I have NSFW on, and regularly browse “all” and porn in general remains a very rare occurence.

      It could depend on time-of-day browsing habits. I’ve noticed NSFW stuff tends to appear more during the night time for the US and Europe. It’s still a small minority of posts overall, though, and I don’t click them enough to observe any trend in proportion of hentai in particular.

        or depending of your instance? Or you still can see post from unfederated instances, I don’t remember, but that wouldnt make much sense

          Your instance would only matter if it is small-scale enough that users haven’t subbed to the originating instances, if it has deliberately defederated from them, or if you are browsing by Local instead of All.

      My feed is sorted by “hot” by default, whatever that means. I see tons on all. New NSFW communities are created daily and posted to by bots and beggars. The hentai seems a lot rarer than the regular porn.

    It’s a lot. I’m not into anime or hentai at all, so I am constantly blocking communities. It seems like just when I get my “home page” how I like it, 16 more new communities popped up lmao.

        I’m on Lemmy.world.

        Piracy talk is a big no-no, but I do get to see the continuous creation of never-ending pornographic hentai & furry shit or whatever. The drawings look like sexualized cartoons made for children and the furry stuff just looks like people drawing out their sick sexual fantasies of animals. Totally normal for the communities that are into that stuff. Don’t kink shame!

        My blocked community list is several pages long now. I really hate that I have to fucking VISIT a community before I can click something to block it. I wish I could tap-and-hold on a post and be able to block the community it was posted in or block their whole fucking disgusting server.

        But I can’t.

        Because that’s the beauty of Lemmy and federation.

        I’m guessing lemm.ee admins take a stronger stance against sick shit.

        Edit: a lot of the posts I see are from communities on the “yiffit.net” server. I have no idea how to block the entire thing. I’ll block one community from there and then posts from another will show up.

        Edit2: just saw a “kurumi_nsfw” post that looked like a drawing of a naked little girl and an “animefeet” post a little below where I saw this thread, so it’s definitely showing up for people.

        Do you allow NSFW content by default? I’m no prude, but I had to turn it off just because there was so much hentai and related porn.

        1. Make sure you are browsing all, not subscribed or local.
        2. It depends on the time of day. Certain things are more popular at certain times of day in different time zones.

    Hentai? I never saw those in my feed. Are you sure it’s not the NSFW communities you subscribed to?

    I actually think I might have NSFW turned off because I’ve never seen a single NSFW post on Lemmy, hmm

    I haven’t seen that much hentai, just regular porn. What communities have you been seeing with hentai? So I can uh stay away from them

        I don’t know why you get downvotes for this. This is completely correct. “no porn” is one of their instance rules.

        But they don’t block instances that allow porn, so there’s NSFW content coming from them and I am fine with this. No hentai, though (at least not enough to qualify as “so much” to me …)

            Funny, they really did. I remember this particular instance not being defederated some time ago. The rules say “no porn” so it’s understandable, though.

    Lemmy has been in large part adopted by horny weebs. Just block the communities or set your reader app to filter out nsfw posts.

    Or become a connoisseur ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

      It doesn’t matter how many of these communities I keep blocking and blocking and blocking, the barrage just keeps on coming, it’s relentless, they refuse to stick to one community or even two dozen of them, they have to make what seems like hundreds.

        The worst are the horde of not necessarily nsfw celebrity communities. Thankfully it’s all from 1-2 users so you can just block them, but it’s like there’s another new one created every couple seconds.

    Freedom, that’s why. If you don’t like it, block the communities. You have the tools to solve the problem.

    Ever boot up Wallpaper Engine?

    It pops up with a “do you want to hide Hentai?” button due to how much of it there is.
