I might use the app in public and don’t want any NSFW posts to appear at all. Plz halp.

That setting isn’t working very well on Memmy at the moment. I’ve had it disabled since I got the app and it was working, but suddenly all the nsfw subs are showing up in the feed.

The first thing I ask myself when switching from subscribed to all is, “How much porn do I have the energy to block today?”. Would be nice to be able to block whole instances. I’m just here for memes and cat pictures.

Well, you can create an account on an instance that's defederated from nsfw instances and doesn't allow nsfw communities inside. For example I've seen almost no porn in my 'all' feed and had to block like one community from some big instance.

Lol thank you for perfectly articulating my thoughts. I tell myself that if I ever want my fitness content, I’ll have to block all the porny shit individually anyway. Really wish there were less of it though. Sadly the cat enthusiasts don’t spend nearly as much time posting as the incels.

I would log back in to Memmy. There seems to be an issue where you lose authentication and there’s no indication.

Nope. Re-saved the password, quit the app and came back in. Still seeing nsfw communities. Thanks for the suggestion though. Probably a bug that will get fixed soon.

Ah gotcha. I will say that I do not have them fully turned off, just blurred, but some are not blurred out so I think it may just be that some content is not properly tagged as nsfw.
