      In my experience you only see it if you have nsfw stuff turned on and you have nsfw unhidden and you browse stuff by new (this is coming from a furry on a furry instance). The furry complaints are overblown imo, lemmynsfw is way worse; stuff doesn’t always get tagged as nsfw there.

        I blocked like 3 magazines, and 99% of the furry stuff on my ‘new’ feed immediately dried up. Mostly just a few places being very active, it would seem.

            Yeah, that’s why I don’t understand the complaints. You’re on the Lemmy equivalent of /r/all, of course you’re gonna get furry stuff. Just block them. No one’s gonna be upset by it. Only thing that’d make people upset is if instance blocking was added and blocking an instance also blocked all the users on it.

            That said I do kinda wish I could block lemmynsfw as a whole

      Maybe it’s lemm.ee? In all while sorting by new, I get a large quantity of furry porn, along with other porn. I’ll admit I’m blocking every porn community until I can just block instances, so maybe that shows more, but it’s been like this the entire time

      I don’t think I have really come across any and I browser All with NSFW enabled.

    My fursona is a homo sapien. Am I doing this right?

    (This joke isn’t meant to denigrate furries at all, rather it is a joke pointing out that humans are animals, too. That’s all)

      Don’t worry, I got the joke even before your edit.

      Now then:

      Pushes glasses up snout ACKTHUALLY while humans might technically be animals, the furry community revolves around animals that possess unnaturally human characteristics, or to put it another way, animals with anthropomorphic features. Because human characteristics are natural to humans, they aren’t really part of the furry community.

      That said, most furries will accept you anyway so long as you aren’t disrupting the vibe. Hell, some people have 'sonas which aren’t based on animals at all, but instead based on planes, trains, etc. There was a meme that went around furry Twitter recently where artists were turning trains into “synth” dragons or similar creatures.

    NSFW stuff is generally fine with me, that can mean a lot of things. Luckily I haven’t seen a ton of furry shit on my Lemmy feed, (primarily use jerboa, so maybe that has an effect?) But on Mastodon I have to block so many people that appear on my feed. I just don’t wanna see your kink shit people, please.

      are you using the federated timeline or did you set up shop on a furry instance? in most cases federated ends up being a trashfire and you should either use local and/or follow specific hashtags.

      you can also mute words, so a carefully crafted set of word mutes would help you quite a bit. and the best of all, this is encouraged! nobody will blame you if you decide to filter out anything you don’t want to see.

    Femboys and furries and small or huge titties. If you can silence all 40 of each Iof those communities, Lemmy is usable.

    No weiners. No anime. No hairy minges. No extreme titties. Is that so much to ask for?

      Since my instance doesn’t allow porn, I have never seen weird/naughty stuff in my feed 🤷‍♂️
