It's not just the mods but the admins going to lengths to keep their instances clean. The awfulness outlined in that post means I'm not sure I should keep hosting my own instance.
Indeed, it's not really a good idea to run your own instance if you're not prepared to deal with such content. Many small instance admins have shutdown their instances for this very reason.
There was a patch merged recently which disabled caching of federated images, but I believe it still needs some work. Some discussion around that over here: https://sh.itjust.works/post/3962112 including an interesting comment suggesting rerouting
/pictrs/path to 404, so nginx won’t serve any images.Don't, software is shit and you're not prepared for what you'll see and how much time you need to sink into that project.
