Thanks!
While the Fediverse will always have NSFW content, it's better for people to not have to see that if they don't go looking for it. The default timelines of the big instances filter nothing, which can be offputting for many users. We had to stop allowing federated toots on our public timeline because of that reason, so it's all local toots.
The downside, is that my instance doesn't have nearly as many users as it should, and i'm not sure why that is.
