Probs get downvoted to oblivion by the freedom crowd. I saw some pretty horrific child related images on nostr and then have never really used it again since. Not sure how they fix it but it needs moderation as that shit is just not acceptable ever.
Hard luck for whatever you saw on Nostr. But the last time I checked, Nostr was a decentralized system. What do you need by "it needs moderation"?

I don’t want to see child porn when browsing an app. It’s a major problem and why I’m choosing to not use the decentralised platform.
reply
Well, good luck with using the centralized platforms.

I've never seen any on nostr. I'm using Amethyst. It's probably possible to find I assume, but same is true for the internet in general so that's not an issue unique to nostr.

I use it for a year and never saw anything like it.
I think the main relay are applying filtering already, but your might have found a relay who is not, certainly not a default one from one of the main app (Amethyst, Primal,...).

If you're expecting the relays to curate you're going to have a bad time, decentralization means being your own curator.
That said its unclear how @yoshi would have come across such content without following or browsing the key that posted (or re-posted) it. Some clients may have suggested content, but I can't imagine that being in any of them, generally Nostr works only by downloading events you ask for. This is what people seem to like about it.

were you on the "global" feed?
notes from the "following" feed is better as you get some sort of web of trust / reputation, because you consciously choose who you follow and that what they post is of your liking.
reply
Yeah thats fair enough, it doesn't change the fact I am one wrong click away from seeing something that just shouldn't be there.
