Blur NSFW/18+ Article Thumbnails (kbin.social)

I'm not sure if this is the right place for a discussion, or if I should rather open an issue at Codeberg.

Anyways, some bold soul posted the first link on @nsfw, which I saw browsing All. It was properly tagged as 18+, but the cropped thumbnail already showed some explicit content.

My proposal would therefore be to blur at least the thumbnails in 18+ posts. I'm not sure how to handle this with federated stuff from e.g. Lemmy, as I have no idea if posts from there can even be tagged 18+.

What does everyone think?

I disagree. There are a lot of niche porn communities on Reddit with active participation and discussion.

Consider, for example, r/EroticHypnosis (NSFW). Content of that nature is difficult to find, and there's a lot to discuss about personal experiences and how to practice. There's a community around that topic and it fits very well into this format.
