It might be better if this community isn't marked as NSFW (pawb.social)

While some furry_irl posts may lean towards NSFW, not all of them are. Individual posts can be marked as NSFW, so that SFW ones are not marked while NSFW ones are.

This is quite important since Lemmy hides NSFW communities by default unless you're logged in, and since you can't view lists of all communities on a particular remote instance from your own instance, this makes finding remote NSFW community difficult. This could hamper the discoverability of furry_irl.

Not to mention users whom might be discouraged from joining this community because they only want to see SFW posts from furry_irl or users whom are part of instances that don't allow NSFW like lemmy.ml

So in my opinion, it's probably best if this whole community, furry_irl, is not marked as NSFW. NSFW posts may be marked as NSFW on a post-per-post cases.

Definitely agree, especially considering that if there were an influx of posts there would be no way to safely browse this community in public. Everything is a gamble when it's all labeled NSFW, and there are a lot of SFW memes people make constantly. In fact, zero NSFW memes have been posted here so far.

Users having the discretion to flag an infrequent NSFW meme as such would work a lot better. I do hope @[email protected] sees this as their account last posted over a week ago.

Thanks for bringing this up; I've updated the community's settings to not be NSFW by default

You're welcome, and thank you for the prompt response!

Thank you for your consideration, Liam.

That said... should I also unmark this post as NSFW? Just to avoid irony. Though, given it's a discussion about how NSFW contents are handled, could it be considered NSFW by itself?
