Next update... should we federate with NSFW instances? (literature.cafe)

So, a lot of features are coming next update to help alleviate some of the annoyance of federating with NSFW instances.

For context, I defederated from the NSFW instances because they clutter the absolute FUCK out of /all. I mainly anticipated federating with them in time when it could be hidden from /all, but domain blocks seem to be coming next update at least as well as disabling remote image caching.

Would yall be ok if I refederated? Or should we wait a bit more for community silencing and hiding as well.

Is there a universal definition of NSFW? I can imagine instances that would call beach scenes NSFW where less conservative groups would have no problem with them. It changes the calculus, IMO.

What’s your take on the question?

Porn.

I remember particularly gory news feeds also being NSFW, so it’s not only porn and erotica that can fall under that tag.

Are the NSFW tags given by the author of the post? Then the benchmark is going to be different depending on the poster: from naked boobs being tagged to more explicit content not being considered NSFW.

I am personally happy with not seeing NSFW content, I come here for books, memes and political discussion, I would hide NSFW posts asap anyway.
