If Lemmy/Pixelfed/Masto can’t capitalize on this we fucked up.
This happened to a bunch of people yesterday, I ended up being one of them and my feed turned into absolute insanity, now it's back to shitposts

Better question:
Why is Instagram hosting horrific violence, animal abuse, murders, dead bodies, and other gore videos AT ALL?
They aren't rotten.com, so why host it? If you don't host it, then you don't need to worry about the feeds screwing up.
Do they do porn videos too? There's the next potential problem...
Because people are sick and if you put an upload button on any website, the sickness will spread through it. Instagram has content moderators and probably AI to filter it but if you have more sick people uploading this shit than moderators, well it gets through. Believe me, they dont want to host it because its not advertiser friendly and alienates users.. there is no incentive to them hosting this, as you said, they arent rotten.

Just stop using it. Try sometimes else, you may like it.

Its actually really suprising how I haven't come across any on lemmy (im sure its here somewhere ive just never seen it).
Disable your NSFW block setting and every 1/3 post is porn, or the dedicated instance http://lemmynsfw.com/ (warning NSFW if it wasn't obvious)
It's actually so active I wish there was a dedicated option for "porn NSFW" and "other NSFW" when making a post because since most people have the block setting on nobody will see it, even if it's just like a photo of art with blood in it or something mild
Lol I thought you meant the exact opposite thing, having to miss any picture with a nipple in it because I don't wanna see beheading videos or whatnot

Zuckerberg is trying to learn what make HUMANS tic, so he can better communicate with organic lifeforms.

I believe it is more refined than that. People in sound mind do not like violence, they want a peaceful and stable life for their families and friends.
If you show violence, you portray a threat. Over time people will be more lenient to surveillance and restriction of freedom in the name of law and order. Look at US people, tolerating torture and widespread vigilance since 11/9. All while still spewing "China bad" or "Putin bad". Why? The ends justify the means.
Let's see if it was a mistake or if the violence is here to stay in Meta apps
We are speaking of the same tree, friend, though some roots go deeper than others. I think the path down the road you mentioned diverges here. I believe there was ill intent behind this, though I cannot offer any proof.

There is a simple fix: delete your instagram account.
And join lemmy

The rumor is that the moderation team for those images which on strike temporarily
I am choosing to believe this and no one can convince me otherwise

Or nothing else. Get a fulfilling hobby, and you'll probably find your life more meaningful.

And join lemmy
Or don't. Just quit SM and do something else w/ your life.
It's too late for me, but maybe someone else can get out.

I'm just happy ig is letting porn through. Cooters and hooters out and about is an indicator of a healthy social media environment
