A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected]. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected] or [email protected]

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Can we think of way to automatically filter softcore sexy communities similarly to the nsfw tag? (jlai.lu)

There's a constant influx of new communities with softcore sexualized characters, especially anime girls, that I could do without.
I don't mind anime and manga in general, so I would rather not block the instances that specialize in it, but blocking softcore communities one by one seems be a never ending task.
I also think it may be off-putting for new members.

We need Mastodon style tools so we can mute and block users and communities. Muting keywords and hashtags as well. I rarely see anything on Mastodon that I don't want to.

These are already a thing actually. I have many communities blocked because I simply don't have any interest in them. I also have the entire instance of lemmynsfw blocked too.

Lol. Yeah. I'm glad that perhaps every local sports team has a dedicated feed, but I still block them so I can browse all for interesting stuff more easily.

Local sports is most of my blocked communities lol

I switch to the Voyager app exactly to block communities and keywords. But I also need to block whole instances to be honest. Namely instances from countries I don't speak the language.
