No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I'm not sure if you can do this on the app you're using, but on the website you can click on your profile --> settings --> disable "Show NSFW Content" and hit save.
That setting isn’t working very well on Memmy at the moment. I’ve had it disabled since I got the app and it was working, but suddenly all the nsfw subs are showing up in the feed.
The first thing I ask myself when switching from subscribed to all is, “How much porn do I have the energy to block today?”. Would be nice to be able to block whole instances. I’m just here for memes and cat pictures.
Well, you can create an account on an instance that's defederated from nsfw instances and doesn't allow nsfw communities inside. For example I've seen almost no porn in my 'all' feed and had to block like one community from some big instance.
Lol thank you for perfectly articulating my thoughts. I tell myself that if I ever want my fitness content, I’ll have to block all the porny shit individually anyway. Really wish there were less of it though. Sadly the cat enthusiasts don’t spend nearly as much time posting as the incels.
Connect app allows for blocking instances now
I would log back in to Memmy. There seems to be an issue where you lose authentication and there’s no indication.
Thanks. I’ll try that
Nope. Re-saved the password, quit the app and came back in. Still seeing nsfw communities. Thanks for the suggestion though. Probably a bug that will get fixed soon.
Ah gotcha. I will say that I do not have them fully turned off, just blurred, but some are not blurred out so I think it may just be that some content is not properly tagged as nsfw.
Thanks, I’ll try this. I’m using the somewhat new iOS app called Memmy.
You might not be surprised to hear that I’m one from the great Reddit exodus, so I’m still a bit unfamiliar with how stuff works here.
On Memmy, go to Profile - > Settings (top right of screen) -> Content. There should be an option to hide NSFW, turn that on.
I have that and the option above it (to blur) both turned on :/
Maybe it’s a bug, the app is new so it’s possible the dev is working on stuff like this.
I haven’t seen any (on iOS/Memmy), but I had NSFW turned off on my main instance profile (lemmy.world), not sure if the toggle works within the app. Try turning it off from your main instance in your browser.
Maybe try to open your setting page via browser, and disable nsfw from there. It will stop all nsfw posts whatever apps you use
