The bare minimum they could do is improve the blocking system so accounts that constantly do those things can just be blocked/hidden entirely. It would honestly solve the problem heavily, its not necessarily FA’s fault that some users don’t know how to content mark stuff properly which is a issue happening everywhere, they are just so slow when it comes to reports & fixing it if the uploader doesn’t so it themselves.
I’ve seen plenty of cases where users had accidentally rated it wrong & fixed it themselves or the staff fixed it. FA’s timeline shows freshly/latest uploaded pieces meaning anything can show from both stolen/traced art, troll posts, illegal content that the site doesn’t allow & of course, unmarked mature/adult content its completely unpredictable. 🤷♂️
I used to have a DeviantArt Filter add-on for my browser so I could filter out what I didn’t like to see. But it stopped working last month and the add-on itself hasn’t been updated for a good few years.
I remember this filter & used to use it awhile ago but never got it back on my new pc as I forgot about its existence. It was very handy while it lasted. I feel like the way Wix changed DeviantArt a lot lately lead up to how the filters no longer work and only breaking especially since lately they have been changing their content systems.
