    There is no an uniform definition of NSFW. LW defines it as erotic or otherwise suggestive media or etc, which is left to interpretation. Being a community that is mainly focused on 2hu pics, it makes sense to adopt danboorus well explained definition with images having a rating. I don’t see a reason to introduce new system, which tries to follow flawed tagging system of Lemmy.

      I know. But I don’t agree that the line between sensitive and general drawn by the booru rating system (or rather, the way it is sometimes applied) is one that translates to the line that makes the most sense on the fediverse for whether something should be tagged NSFW.

      Sure, use the same words, but even that will be up to interpretation to an extent. They use the line “and anything else potentially not safe for work” in the sensitive rating which could be almost anything depending on who is deciding.

      Their rating for general is “Nothing sexualized or inappropriate to view in front of others” which to me this image I posted fits into exactly. I wouldn’t be surprised seeing someone posting a photo of themselves, dressed and posing in a equivalent manner, simply because it looks cool.

      Eventually, multiple tags should be made available, but until then we should do the best that is possible with what is here. By using our judgement and discussing it the way we are now.
