I would be thrilled to see all of the "random" panes in the sidebar just go away and be replaced by a list of the magazines I'm subscribed to for easy access to them... it's silly that things I don't care about are pushed at me while things I've actually indicated I'm interested in are buried down in menus.

i personally like the random mags bc it helps me discover more magazines that i never knew existed. i click stuff in there often. however, it should be optional for people like you who’d rather not see it.

in the mean time i recommend floating subs panel which is a script that puts your subscriptions on a floating panel to the left, it is collapsible. (and if you’re inclined, a customizable user style i made to make it prettier)

and as an alternative you could also try this script that does the same thing, just visually different.

How do I get to see more boobs on kbin?

Not sure of kbin specific magazines but there is a lemmynsfw instance of just porn communities.

yea but then I'd have to... ehem I mean...he'd have to go to lemmynsw which has an awful UI.

You aren't wrong, but the purpose of going to lemmynsfw is just to collect the community names. Once you can see the list and know there's a "boobs" or "ass" community, you then can come to kbin and sub to that [email protected] or [email protected] community and you'll only have spent like 10 seconds with your eyeballs being shitfucked by their UI lol

You can just search "lemmynsfw" in magazine/community search. It finds 8 pages of @lemmynsfw.com communities for me. And subscribe or block from there.

The downside to that is that that will only find communities from that instance which at least one person on your instance is subscribed to.

For example, until I went to the (general, not magazine/community) search field, entered [email protected] and subscribed, searching for midwest.social in the magazine/community list would not have shown (on kglitch.social). Now, because I subscribed to it, kglitch.social has it in its list of magazines/communities and people can find [email protected] in that list.

Ah, that's weird. You'd think it'd work if the instances were federated. Thanks.

I just told him that, and my pal would prefer it not to subscribe, so I guess he needs to find another way to compensate for his eyes not being shitfucked...

but thx anyway..

Oh I know lmao.

The other person who commented has the right idea though. Just search lemmynsfw in the magazine search, you'll see the subs and browse whatever's-been-federated-to-us without needing to sub.

Also if you just want porn period regardless of body part or genre, you can also browse kbin.social/d/lemmynsfw.com, that'll show you the entire domain and all of it's content.

wow... this one I didn't know... and it sounds very useful.

dirty jokes asside, but recently I thought to myself how cool would it be to browse a whole instance like programming.dev.

Edit: whaaaaaat? I can subscribe to /d/programming.dev ... eat a dick, Reddit

That same url is how you can block instances too, so you are aware!

just look it up on the magazine section of kbin, results from kbin and lemmy will be there. you don’t need to leave kbin

Yeah but they voted for and allow animated under age porn. I will stay clear of an instance like that.

I find that sometimes kbin 404's on some domains, like qoto.org. Is that a bug? Or is it because nobody's requested a magazine from that domain yet, it's just microblog posts?

2

I just had this a day or two ago for the first time as well. Typically, it "works", but some places still show content I've banned. I also think that it doesn't ban comments from individual users from that domain or something, but I might be mis-remembering.

Yes, but If we're looking to get people to migrate over here, it's not a good first impression. It could also get people into trouble browsing in certain environments.

Yeah that random posts section was one of the first things I got rid of on my kbin instance. It never shows anything useful or interesting.

I saw a post that automatically grabbed a NSFW furry thumbnail pic from somewhere but it wasn’t in the linked article, nor did it show up on Lemmy.

2

This was a link to a microblog with someone claiming to be an exhibitionist. Whilst I have zero problem with that, I do not want to have this open in the office (for example to look up a particular issue with a software or something) and have my boss walk by.

You can't report someone for posting NSFW content in an NSFW sub. Well you can but absolutely nothing will happen.

6

True, but you can report that is not flagged as nsfw and the moderators of either instance can properly flag it. Which seems to be the main cause of these issues? I have nsfw content disabled on this account and have ran into unflagged nsfw on the front page. I'm not against nsfw content being hosted, I just personally don't want to see it. The point isn't to get it taken down or anything, just properly tagged so the people who don't want to see it, don't.

3

The report isn't for posting NSFW content but for not flagging NSFW content as NSFW content. Please keep those bad faith arguments at Reddit.
