furries. linux supremacists. extremist left-wingers of various flavors and identity groups. fetishists of every variety and their weird SFW quasi pornography.
not sure how you aren’t seeing any of that. i see it on a daily basis and to not see it i have to block dozens of communities. at one point on lemmy i had something like 60 communities blocked and 100s of users.
I mean I see it but it’s the internet… do people really not expect them to be posting?
nothing wrong with them posting and doing their thing, but in fediverse that stuff hits general feeds and going to be incredibly alienating to a non-fetishist userbase. if the fediverse wants to grow it needs to keep controversial content away from the front page.
personally i know furries and I don’t really care, but I’m a weirdo. Yet I still don’t really want weird furry shit that I don’t care about constantly showing up in my feed.
Average people are FREAKED OUT by furries, even pro-queer progressives: https://slate.com/advice/2026/02/parent-advice-son-hobby-community-furry.html
Oh well yeah I mean furry content isn’t the same as furry porn. I immediately blocked the nsfw instances from my feed. Idk why that isn’t done by default
i think some instances do, some don’t.
but some content is not porn, but very much like porn, like a lot of the furry meme stuff
