There is a substantial amount of spam and NSFW posts on the All page coming through already. Most NSFW posts aren’t being tagged as such and are coming right through. I am not sure how this can be weathered but we need something in place fairly soon, I feel like we are days away from rivers of bad stuff, especially via some of the federated instances.

EDIT: I personally don’t care much about the NSFW aspect, more in the lines of what a newcomer will be seeing when they get to the main page. 99% of the newcomers don’t know / care about federation and have no idea how to turn that off. Liability for the server owner is also an element of consideration.

    Is there a way to block an entire instance? Because in my kbin.social settings I have “hide adult content” turned ON and yet I keep getting posts from lemmynsfw in my feed and my sidebar of random recent posts.

          OK, I saw that, but most of the content of lemmynsfw is not tagged as NSFW. How do I block a complete instance?

          edit: I just realised that I was answering to the same person who asked the exact same question, sorry. Still new to this

              You can visit domain page, as you would magazine page, and there is a button to subscribe to it or block it. Here is the link to domain page of lemmynsfw.com, but be warned - you’ll see the post from that instance and some of them might not be properly tagged, so consider it NSFW despite your settings https://kbin.social/d/lemmynsfw.com. That should block entire instance (and i think the magazines/communities you are subscried to are exempted from this block, so you still see those)

                  In my experience as a programmer the user interface always lags behind the features. I’m sure it will get easier to use these things soon given how much attention is being focused on it now.
