I don't really block unless it just becomes overwhelming on the TL with spam or weird comments; but my instance isn't federated anymore, anyway (though I'm not entirely sure how the whole concept works because I can still see the two I'm subscribed to fine - maybe it just won't actively show up on the timeline but you can still enter the community by typing it in??)

I use the connect app, so I just blocked the instance. Even though it's the one I'm currently logged into lol.
All of them. I'm browsing /all simply to block more, so that they won't accidentally show in my feed.
Yeah man, same boat. I actually do have NSFW disabled, but I've still blocked at least a dozen or two lemmynsfw communities for actresses, celebs, gentlemenboners, ladyboners, ladyladyboners, just a metric ton of SFW porn communities.
Would make things so much easier if I could outright block the instance, and heck, maybe I'd even turn on NSFW in that case.
I block all the IRL porn I see, but the hentai and the like can stay
My instance just defederated them all together.
I think we need some sort of whitelist instead of a blacklist, it would probably be easier to mantain

I never even see anything nsfw myself both on kbin and lemmy. How far do people scroll when browsing?

14 / 15.
None. When you make a profile it asks if you are interested in nsfw and I just left it unchecked. I'm not sure if that's the difference but I remembered getting flooded early on with porn until I unchecked that box in my profile.
The lemmynsfw.com content is always properly marked as nsfw, so that's definitely the difference. Only downside is you may be missing out on non-pornographic nsfw content, which is honestly not that common yet.
That's fair. I did leave it checked in case there was nsfw content that I would be missing but then I thought maybe it just meant instances that were nsfw? So I checked it off. I can try checking a post marked nsfw and see if I can still see it I suppose.

Could you please share your list so I too can block these disgusting instances?
None. I blocked nafw and have a seperate account for that
None. When viewing all I might see a few posts but they're hidden with my settings on Liftoff. Not an issue.
I use a different app and account for NSFW things
I block basically all of the cartoon porn. Just not my cup of tea.
Weird thing though: I subscribe to a very few communities there because I like the occasional nudity in my news feed. Browsing by Subscribed I almost never get posts from there even though they are active. Only every now and then something comes through. I wouod expect a slightly higher frequency.
none!
...cause aussie.zone blocks NSFW completely hehe
I use kbin so I just have NSFW switched to off (by default and I haven't changed that) and I haven't seen a single one
Blocked a few dozen, subscribed to maybe half a dozen. It got a lot easier once I figured out the app lets me block communities without having to open the community page.
