NSFW images should be blurred by default

Although I would like to NSFW content in my timeline, I think its better to have them blurred by default and only visible if I click on it. And any such post from NSFW subreddits should also be blurred by default. Saying this because I noticed a post from a NSFW subreddit in the front-page and it was displayed without any blurring. I can anticipate this leading to potentially awkward situation otherwise, especially when browsing the site during a slow day at work.

Mr_Eff,

Kbin is new enough and still growing/getting set up, can we just get it built right this time from the start and get TWO clearly different NSF tags? NSFW for sexually explicit and NSFL for death/gore/other.

I like the idea of having two distinct tags for both as long as they both are blurred/spoilered by default. With two distinct tags, people could opt out of hiding one but not the other.

Cor_bot,

Three tags! One for spoilers! Many subreddits would use NSFW as double duty to mark spoilers for shows and movies. Let's make sure we have a separate tag for that too!

gonzo0815,

I thought about that too this morning. We have the chance to redefine different "NSF"-tags instead of just having one. I don't mind seeing "light" NSFW content, but it might not be the best idea to open porn on my workplace PC or when i sit in a train. I also don't mind seeing most NSFW content in private, but i really don't need to see traumatizing stuff.

I propose the following:

  • Nudity/Porn
  • NSFL (potentially traumatizing, death, gore etc.)
  • NSFW (other stuff that doesn't fall in those categories, like people fighting, puke, slight injuries)
  • Spoiler

of course, there will never be 100% agreement about what content fits to what category, but that's always been the case and can be discussed in the comments.

To add more; we can even add comment tags so that we don't have to use things like "/s" and instead have a clear thingy that says [Sarcasm], even if it sounds silly, people already use tone indicators so this just simplifies the whole thing. No relation to NSFW but similar.

I know Reddit the hive mind usually hates emojis but I think a lot of the tone indicators you wish for could be solved by people using them more commonly.

nude,

Emojis have a long history on the internet. It doesnt seem so long ago that every forum post ended with some form of 😎

I think most people dont mint them, its just when they real obnoxious obviosuly troll levels with 15 in a row mid sentence

blackdragoness,

Tbh I miss being able to use them sometimes. It's really only reddit where I've seen people lose their minds over an emoji.

Be the change you want to see Bud 🖖

Having been though stuff like l33t speak where everyone was T3h ep1c H4x0r, emojis really aren't that bad as long as your post doesn't become a hieroglyph. Even then, it's just a different spin on what people have been doing since the internet was a thing
