I’m still figuring things out. My account is on lemmy.world, and I noticed that when I browse /all, I see a lot of posts in communities that are on lemmynsfw, but if I go to lemmynsfw.com directly, most of those communities don’t show. In fact, going directly, most of the posts on lemmynsfw actually look SFW - they’re on c/celebs and communities for specific people. Can anyone explain it for me?
You’re not logged in when you browse through lemmynsfw. NSFW-flagged content may not show when you aren’t logged in.
Oh, interesting, I had no idea that was a thing. And there’s no way to login with my lemmy.world account when I go directly, right? And it’s a server side setting, not on my end?
Yes, AFAIK there’s no way to log in on one instance using credentials from another instance. And also yes, it is a server-side setting (again, as far as I know).
Honestly though, making a separate account on lemmynsfw isn’t the worst idea. That’s what I did to keep my NSFW browsing and normal Lemmying separate.
