Should half naked pictures of anime characters be marked NSFW on Lemmy? (lemmy.world)

I’m talking about this sort of thing. Like clearly I wouldn’t want someone to see that on my phone in the office or when I’m sat on a bus.

However there seems be a lot of these that aren’t filtered out by nsfw settings, when a similar picture of a woman would be, so it seems this is a deliberate feature I might not be understanding.

Discuss.

We're on a thread about whether certain pictures should be marked “NSFW” or not.

A subject on which, as is both obvious to anyone who doesn't have their head up their own arse and evidenced by this very same thread, no agreement is possible. An objective demonstration of why this tagging nonsense not only doesn't work, but can't possibly ever work.

You might as well be discussing about whether it's better to use the western horoscope or the Chinese one to decide which threads are “suitable for work”.

And I'm sorry, but this kind of wilful stupidly just fucking irks me to no end.

I don't get your problem. You like to filter by community or whatever, and I like to use the NSFW filtering. We're different. Why get cross about it?
