When you open a NSFW post, should it unblur? (lemmy.world)

Let’s say you click on a NSFW post on home tab, a community, etc, should it unblur the post? Currently you have to click the “show nsfw” button. If you open the post, it requires a second click.

I’m thinking about making it so it unblurs when you open the post. The exception would be if someone direct links you to the post. The I will still require you click “show nsfw”.

If you agree it should unblur, then what should happen when you return to home, the community, etc? Should it reapply the blur or remain unblured in the feed of multiple posts?

Perhaps make it a toggleable option? Some people might only use Lemmy/Piefed in environments where viewing NFSW posts is acceptable, while others may want the added safeguard of a blur.

If it has to be one or the other, unbluring is the more straightforward option, though the implementation of a toggleable option would allow the end user to choose for themselves.

Blorp already supports show nsfw with or without blur. Although there were some bugs until the last update causing the PieFed blur nsfw setting to not be respected.

But there is some nuance to how that blur setting gets applied. That’s what I’m trying to figure out here. Currently it blurs nsfw a little more aggressively than other clients. I think I’m gonna relax the blur a little in the next update.
