NSFW instances and federation (midwest.social)

I recently was scrolling through my All feed and noticed some NSFW content on lemmynsfw.com. It was blurred but I wasn't expecting it. What do you all think of this? Should we continue to federate with some NSFW instances? I'm personally OK with it as long as the content is blurred unless I click on it but wanted to get your opinions on it.

Edit: Completely forgot about the NSFW settings that everyone has. We'll continue federating with NSFW instances going forward.

When viewing new, I get a lot of posts from that instance that aren't blurred.... I'm not sure if it's a tagging issue or a Jerboa issue, but it's pretty obnoxious. I'm still generally supportive of keeping it around, but I hope they find a way to get that under control soon.

It's a tagging issue. Essentially people are used to not having to tag posts in NSFW subreddits because they're set to NSFW by default. That function doesn't yet exist in Lemmy, so people are forgetting.

Actually, I just tested and it seems to be Jerboa. The same post behaves differently between desktop and Jerboa, unless it's an app setting I've overlooked.

The iOS app Mlem has the same problem
