NSFW content not blurred in preview

My apologies if this is posted twice, my first attempt has disappeared.

I have blurring enabled in my settings but as the attached image shows, the nsfw picture in the link preview is not blurred. I’m not sure if this is new functionality, I just haven’t seen it before.

  • Those are nice.

  • Both posts are visible to me. https://lemmy.world/post/19477568

    • Odd. Thanks for sharing, here’s what I see. They’re not visible in my profile

      And they’re not visible in the community

      • Are they visible on the web interface? I am browsing with Mlem and see both of them.

      • You might have "Show NSFW Content" turned off in your Lemmy account settings. If that setting is off you won't be able to see any NSFW posts, even in your own profile. You'd still be able to open the post via a link, but they won't appear in any feeds.

  • Sorry, I noticed this post a little late. I usually get notifications for new posts here, but I believe I was doing maintenance on the notification server when you posted this.

    Anyway, it looks like you figured this out already. I would love to include an option to toggle this account setting in Arctic, however it goes against the AppStore regulations. I’m allowed to have a toggle for client side filtering and blurring, but not for changing the account setting. I’ll see about adding a status message in settings to notify users if NSFW content is disabled on their account.

    • The thing is, even with blurring and not showing nsfw, that preview image was not blurred. I understand about account settings not all being available.

      Thank you for all your hard work on this app! 💙

      • Sorry, it was late when I replied and I didn’t notice exactly what you were referring to. I got sidetracked by the post not showing for you.

        This is about the link preview in the post not being blurred. This is not exactly a bug. The issue with blurring content in comments is that there is no way to mark a comment or a link as NSFW on Lemmy. What I could do is add an option to blur all links and images in comments on NSFW posts. To be honest, I hadn’t really thought of this scenario before.
