I've found it much more effective to ban the spam posters / bot posters in general, instead of communities. That catches the worst of it and mostly eliminates all of the cross posting.

Lemmynsfw is the biggest reason I’m on here.
Social media for anything else is just toxic, so other than niche things, I get most of my news from news sites now (that way I don’t have to see all the awful comments that just infuriate me).
Connect for Lemmy has a block instances feature. No idea how well it works though
Disabled nsfw for now, before that I tried blocking all the creepy celebrity-communities. There's one for every third rate female celeb under the sun and the guys posting there are spamming every picture with a hint of cleavage or leg.
I have NSFW posts disabled anyway
What are you browsing with? Connect on Android has an option to block instances.
Could you please share your complete list so I too can block these disgusting NSFW instances?
I hear people talk about porn in All but I never see it despite not filtering for NSFW. Not sure why that is. Something to do with the particular instance I'm connected to? I believe that is Lemmy.world
None.
I've been able to ban whole instances with Connect for Lemmy and hide nsfw. Made the browsing a lot more enjoyable
I never get these, is it because I don't browse all?
Yup, that's why - if you're on Subscribed you'll only ever see posts from communities you subscribed to. Or even if you're on local, you won't see any content from other instances like lemmynsfw.com.
Way too many. I'd like to see occasional non-sexual NSFW content in my All feed, hence not turning on NSFW filtering, but lemmynsfw is too prolific in my All feed.
None, but I browser by "Subscribed" instead of "all"
I browse mainly subscriptions, so I didn't see them
I have 238 blocked communities. ~3/4 porn, 1/4 sports, gaming, and non-English. I don't really want to block the instance as i kind of like to see the community titles. It's like a weird name competition. Winners are currently hentaibdsm and dangleandjiggle.
Probably a similar amount, it’ll just take time I guess before all the stuff I want to see is getting posted enough. I have a separate acct specifically for lemmynsfw, on this acct I actually don’t see any nsfw stuff. The problem is that my Subscribed list feels too barren, there’s not enough stuff getting posted or maybe I haven’t found all the communities I might be interested in. So I sort by All, which has quite a bit of stuff I’m not interested in at all, so I block that stuff. Eventually I’m assuming the two lines will cross paths and I can just switch over to my Subscribed list full-time. Until then I’ll just have to fight through waves of concerning porn until I can find my totally vanilla deviancies.
None. I just don't browse All.
Mostly furry porn.
I blocked the whole instance. I'll admit that I do want to see nude females (who are obviously adults) but I was seeing lots of other stuff that I don't find sexy, and blocking specific communities was like playing whack-a-mole.
Yeah man, same boat. I actually do have NSFW disabled, but I've still blocked at least a dozen or two lemmynsfw communities for actresses, celebs, gentlemenboners, ladyboners, ladyladyboners, just a metric ton of SFW porn communities.
Would make things so much easier if I could outright block the instance, and heck, maybe I'd even turn on NSFW in that case.
I do not browse nsfw communities, yet I use lemmynsfw as my main server lol
I've been working on all the 'yiff' shit myself. Just the word, I fucking hate it, and seeing the art is even worse.
I've seen a lot of people complaining about that too, but it hasn't really showed up on my All page: Only one of my blocked communities has "yiff" anywhere in its name
I've blocked all the dicks but there are quite a few really tasteless pussy upclose ones that I blocked as well. The ai porn is absolute s tier quality though. I guess I'm more into artistic nudity than hardcore porn. I. Do. Not. Want. To. See. Upclose shots of genitals or buttholes.

I've only blocked all the trans ones that pop up cause I just am not interested in that frankly.
Other than that, I scroll past the odd post but they're blurred so it's really not an issue to me. I can click it if I want and I'm not in a place I shouldn't be
I'm blocking some bots and a bunch of porn. I didn't block porn on Reddit, just scrolled past the few posts but with less content there is more porn in my way. I'm not worried about it being there in general I guess.
I never noticed any because Aussie.zone isn't federated with it, took me a while to realise this, just thought there wasn't any porn here yet
