Hey! I was about to make a feature request on github for this but I thought having a discussion first would be helpful.

I propose a system of filtration :

  1. Porn - Obviously, sexual material of any kind, not including sensual photos without nudity but anything else with nudity which is supposed to be arousing.

  2. NSFL - Not safe for life. Any kind of gore, content with blood or showcasing a fatal/non-fatal accident, murder etc. goes here.

  3. NSFW - Any kind of post that doesn't fit either Porn or NSFL. For example, memes referencing sex, porn, fetishes etc. or use of words related to these activities.

Please give more suggestions. I would like this because I don't want to see porn but I am okay with posts that reference adult themes.

That sounds like a great plan. Unfortunately I think it's ill-conceived.

To demonstrate, I'd like you to take this survey: https://novehiclesinthepark.com/

Then read up on some of the discussions from the time https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36453856

Rules can be interpreted in many ways and your rules of porn/nsfl/nsfw might not conform to other peoples' rules of porn/nsfl/nsfw. It's not exactly an easy problem to solve.
