4/4 Spot an issue with the labels? You can help by reporting images you believe are incorrectly classified, or appealing labels you think were applied in error. Human moderators review all reports and appeals. We appreciate your assistance in getting image labeling correct!
The human moderators have been rather puritan and their own bias shows through. The auto labels have been sexist. I know furries earned their reputation, but it's been extra strict against those of us that draw it, even if G or PG rated. Yet again where the human mods bias shows through.
Women's Art1 has been stolen. The account was TARGETED to be stolen & was. By bullying accounts. So what are you going to do? Anything?
If we self label why add extras? And why are my FULLY CLOTHED selfies being marked as porn? Seems like you’re STILL targeting anyone who happens to have big tits regardless of being fully clothed (which has come up MULTIPLE TIMES before)
Well this is concerning..... @safety.bsky.app I haven't posted any selfies (yet), but am I really gonna be marked porn just because genetics said "GIANT TITS HERE! DUMP IT ALL HERE!"? They're covered, ffs.
Sadly, probably 😕
a label should indicate if it was applied automatically or if there was human intervention. it is easier to justify appealing a questionable label if you know no human has looked at it yet
🌌 can you please answer the women, femmes and fat people who have been screaming for months that the tagger is biased against them? We report so many images, so many! We self tag and the auto tagger replaces them with less accurate tags Why let us self tag at all if you don’t respect it?
As an NSFW artist I can surely say they are correct. However, I feel bad for the person handling these labels and have to go through all my sick stuff :P Can't we help with adding labels ourselves during upload? (or can we already, i just cant find it?)
You can! It's the symbol with the shield and the exclamation point. You can tap it when you add an image
I am BEGGING you for a way to block or just mute furry art and cartoons from my feed. I wish for them all to prosper in their own milieu but this would have a huge impact on usability for this app (for me).
I'm actually considering uninstalling if bluesky thought the problem was "not enough furry art makes it to discovery" There is too much. I have nothing against them, I want them to find their own, but if I have to see two fat dog men making out every time I open this app I'm not gonna use it.
I explicitly follow adult artists and haven't run into this, though the 'Classic Discover' feed is like half guys showing their dicks when I've checked
Yeah and blocking just doesn't help, if there's one guy out there named HornyDaddyGayBear posting pictures of his ass, bsky finds it for me
How about having human moderators check the AI labels before they go into effect, until the AI is properly trained. It's still classifying any nudity as pornography, even if it's completely innocent nudity.
I'm hoping that "Skinemax" level nudity will wind up on the side of (vaguely) artistic, not "pornography." I don't have any issue with porn (and occasionally photograph some), but the guidelines are vague. I did notice almost instant response to my appeals.
I feel like anything that is just female topless, unless absurdly provocative, should be "Nudity." Anything mundane and female topless should just be "Mature." #freethenipple
Is anything that is just male topless unless absurdly provocative "Nudity"? I would offer, "No.", which is the actual problem here.
Male topless is nudity.
itym "dudity"
Dumditty
I've learned that a Netflix series that promises "Nudity" will have 2 seconds of some guy's dimly lit hairy ass about 2/3 of the way through the fifth episode and meanwhile no tiddies.
boobs are in this movie boxd.it/1H42
If u get the chance, this got tits too boxd.it/1Tk2
Top secret but watched this for Anne Hathaway Titty. And they are really nice. boxd.it/2b2q
Jane Fonda is hot in this movie and tits in the first scene boxd.it/20Ba
I can’t remember the movie or director’s name now but there was a sorta homage to ‘70s sexy vampire movies that came out in ‘16 or ‘17 that I think you might like if I can remember what it’s called.
Something similar, though more psycho-sexual weirdness and no supernatural stuff is The Duke of Burgandy: very nicely crafted “retro” movie, is from 2014 but feels like a 70s sexploitation film
Ah! Remembered. Was thinking of this: m.imdb.com/title/tt3908...
Watch Embrace of the Vampire on Tubi. I watched that movie yesterday.
is gif,videos,dms and stuff coming?
My issue is I have my settings at "allow" for things I am now being forced to click through, to see.
But are the human moderators pilgrims? Because as of right now they appear to be so.
Quick question. Does the labeling hurt discoverability, or does it simply help filter posts for people who don't want to see that type of content?
Can we get a little update on folk being tagged pornographic for being fat?
WTF? Walk away for a few hours and…
They’re STILL labeling anyone with big tits as porn even when we’re fully clothed. Like we have any say in our genetics 😤
That’s very wrong.
Yeah and we’ve been bringing it up for the past 8 months & nothing has changed 😖
@jay.bsky.team @pfrazee.com This seems concerning. Genetics shouldn't be part of any sort of filtering in any way, shape or form. LITERALLY.
Fire fucking russians from your payroll.
Huh?
I wish I had photoshop skills bc I saw this in my head as “payroll” being like a T-shirt cannon, only it shoots out copulating Russian couples 🤣
What are you confused about?
well i'm anti-russia but i'm unaware of any russians on bluesky's payroll, i'm genuinely curious
@danabra.mov
are you still referring to anything detected as explicit as "pornography"? it's kind of a loaded word to be using especially when you have such a problem with false positives
That's been removed from almost everything in app, and currently the only reference is in an appeal flow that should be fixed near-term.
it's been renamed to adult content
What's the best way to report errors in labels? People seem to be very confused about that. And, possibly reporting processes in general. Thank you!
Just click/tap the gray label and write down, what's wrong with the classification and send it. Somebody will take a look at it. I've just made a test and it was corrected within a couple of minutes.
Do they correct "higher" or "lower" filtering or both, do you know? I'd be concerned that reporting something that was tagged "mature" (and wasn't) would get *penalized* by reporting that it was mistagged as adult when it was R or PG or G. (Other sites have trained me to this paranoia.)
If it’s wrong we do our best to correct it Beth. I think I understand your concern, but unless you are sending in a massive volume of appeals (some do!) I wouldn’t be concerned on filing appeals and getting a penalty? It’s also how we get signal to tweak image processing.
I'm worried that "this isn't mature, it's PG at worst" corrections would mess with the person who posted! (Like sending typo alerts to Amazon will get self-pub works suspended.) If there's no penalty to "correct down" in moderation terms, that's good to know.
Example of what I am paranoid about: Person A: •posts a picture of looking cute• Bluesky Automated filtering: •labels picture Adult Content• Me: •reports as not adult content• Bluesky: •locks person A's account for misrepresenting their posts• Me: NO! NOT LIKE THAT!
We don’t assume the image labelling is perfect. It’s a decent signal to lower the load on moderators and on users. If we applied manual labels, people would see a wave of adult content and then the onus is on the user to report, increasing harms.
We don’t penalise users posting images for appealing labels in good faith. Hope that helps clarify.
So long as me reporting mis-auto-labeled things isn't seen as a penalty to the person posting the things!
