I really appreciate all your efforts to bring content to the community!
Tagging gives people who could get fired the option to have the content blurred until they click it.
We try not to be judgemental assholes here, but plenty of our bosses are judgemental assholes.
That's why the tag is "Not Safe for Work".
It is more generous to err on the side of caution.
It also result in more reach, because the other option available to folks with shitty bosses is just to block users and instances that don't tag things.
I.e. I've blocked everything here with the word "moe" because holy shit those folks have no fucking clue how to tag anything.
Oh wow you censor it to all the people that hide NSFW!!! Dude this platform doesn't have an algorithm, unless someone hides NSFW they will see the post, and if they do hide NSFW, maybe it's because they don't want to see it?

You might want to set this as nsfw.

Why?

The somewhat sexual theme of the comic may have caused the high amount of downvotes.
Marking this as nsfw would probably help alleviate that, seeing as this is a general comic strips community.

It actually breaks the community rules.

Should we censor sex from all the communities?
Should we censor it from Lemmy?
I am asking because that is what you are suggesting.

They're asking you to label it not censor it
Beep@lemmus.org · -59 pts · 163d
Labeling it as NSFW is equivalent to censoring it.
einkorn@feddit.org · 24 pts · 163d
No, it just means people have to actively make a single click to disable the blur.

Beep has some really fucked up opinions. Between this and removing artist signatures, they've got to just be a troll.

That blur is, by definition, censorship.
Nothing in this post is in need of being censored.

That's complete and utter nonsense.

“If I can’t spam your home screen with sex jokes, that’s called censorship”

Of course "we need to crop out the watermark" isn't the only shite take you have.

No, it's not. NSFW is shown by default unless the individual user chooses to switch off showing NSFW content on their account.
Is posting something to a more fitting, but quieter community censoring? No. Same effect as far as visibility goes.
What do you have against allowing people to control what they're exposed to?
