It is right now super frustrating to be in the situation I do not see vast amounts of the lemmyverse, because of it.
One of the reason I joined this is because the sharp blocking of NSFW content goes against my principles of sexpositivity and I don’t believe a free community can exist without acknowledging that part of the user group. Nobody banned reddit for having gonewild, so what is going on here?
It’s pretty awful for an average Lemmy user, because you can get cut off from communities you already subscribed to, without any notification! So you might post and comment without realizing that your content is not getting published, even though you and your local instance still see it.
The user experience would be improved by getting a warning if you try to contribute to a community in this case. And also your subscriptions should show warnings about not working anymore, and those should come up as notifications on the account.
Those are all great UX suggestions. I wonder if someone can at least make client-side script for them. Currently I have to remember who blocked who before interacting. I find myself constantly checking <instance.tld>/instances page of mainstream instances
