Hey guys, it was brought up in a report that NSFW tags should be applied to posts depicting drug use. What do you guys think? I could see it either way and thought you guys might like to weigh in on it. I personally don’t find it particularly offensive but my work environments have never been the type to react strongly to something like this popping up on screen (I think they might be more upset about being on Lemmy at all). Currently there is no rule, and I am fine with that, unless feedback indicates the community would rather play it safe and require the NSFW flag.
The NSFW tag is part of the mechanism to curate the feed.
I’m not sure why people get offended by people wanting to use social media but not wanting to view content that can get them fired. If the content doesn’t bother you, then you shouldn’t filter NSFW content. It’s not like the NSFW tag is censoring the content and preventing you from seeing it if you click it.
For people with jobs, why not make it easier to filter the things that companies don’t like? It doesn’t affect you any.
