I have the Hide Adult Content checkbox selected in my profile settings, but I am still seeing stuff like this in the sidebar as links to Random Magazines / Posts / Threads.

I’m not sure if it technically is a moderation issue where the Magazine, Post, or Thread needs to be marked as NSFW in case the OP didn’t do so or something more. It seems like it happens too often to just be where it is simply posts that slip past the mods so that makes me wonder if the NSFW checkbox is broken or just doesn’t do anything.

    Sorry for that, but not all content is marked as +18. Tomorrow, I will limit the display to posts from this instance.

      I would like a way to totally remove the sidebar, I don’t want or need random anything. Wouldn’t that make page generation faster as well?

        If you have stylus or a similar css injector installed, you can add this rule:

        section.active-users.section,
section.posts.section,
section.entries.section {
    display: none;
}

        and get rid of most of it (I like having the parts I didn’t get rid of)

      I think Mastodon has an option to mark all content from specific instances as NFSW, maybe that’s an idea for kbin as well?

      personally i like the random section and i hope it stays. if anything, an option can be added to hide it for people who dont want it. mag mods need a reminder to have their users mark their posts nsfw

    It is only a guess, but my guess is this originated on the LemmyNSFW instance. Ideally they would mark everything NSFW, but some things over there don’t get marked, and Lemmy doesn’t have an option so the admins can set/flag the whole instance and all content.

    This has been noted as a problem before, LemmyNSFW is certainly running the risk of being widely defederated as a result. I think Ernest is suggesting he’ll code something into kbin so that anything which originated on that instance can (and will) be treated as NSFW regardless of whether the users over there identified it as such.

    The sidebar also ignores bans. It’s just a proof-of-concept.

    I resorted to blocking the element completely with the uBlock extension

    There have definitely been some issues with posts on other instances that are marked as nfsw on their instance not showing up as nsfw here, too. Though it’s been a bit, so I don’t know for sure if that’s still an issue.
