    Hi ragnilorenzo,

    The same thing happened to me. I suggest creating a separate Apple ID for each device. In this way you lose the whole ecosystem effect, but gain freedom as well as making it impossible to reset passwords between multiple devices, reducing your risk.

    MacOS
    My primary account was downgraded to standard user after setting up a new account as admin. After that, I installed ColdTurkey, with open internet from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. from Monday through Friday as I work from the office, and then whitelisted websites only before/after that schedule.

    I then installed a profile (using iMazing) on the standard user that prevents adding new users and making changes to user groups. Users are also prevented from making changes the system profile.

    - prevents from making changes to users groups
    - prevents users from installing apps
    - prevents users from making changes to system profiles.

    In coldTurkey I blocked app Terminal, so that it's impossible to uninstall ColdTurkey.

    Lastly, I set up a complex administrator password, and locked it in lockbox.

    Turn off time machine.

    iPhone and IPad
    I made separate apple IDs with very long emails that act as passwords when I try to reset screen time. When screen time was activated, only whitelisted websites could be accessed and apps couldn't be installed.

    Lockbox
    My lockbox has a 1-day delay unlock. This allows me to make updates whenever I need to.

    Hey Thomas, thank you very much for your suggestions.
    ColdTurkey is a blessing, I don't know why I haven't considered it before!
    For the moment I set it up to block Apple Configurator and Terminal with a password so I can still be administrator and update my work applications (ColdTurkey itself has a pretty good anti tampering system so you can't delete it by just drag'n dropping it to the bin), plus, thanks to your suggestion, I made a password-protected configuration profile to lock users&groups preference panel.
    For filtering I'm using NextDNS protected via dedicated email + pluckeye's lockbox.
    For mobile devices I'm using a radical approach because even with tons of porn filters I can still manage to find something dangerous on the web, so I'm using configuration profiles that allow just a few essential apps excluding any browser at all.

    Thank you again for your help, I would be happy to return the favor if anyone needs

    The filers that really work are kaspersky safe kids(it has an AI integration I think) on windows and family link on android. Every other method is easily bypassable.

    With family link you don't have to disable anything since it works all the time. There is also safe mode on your phone that will block every app and you can watch as much P as you want. Family link prevents all of this.

    Your pluckeye turtorial is impressive. However, can't you just install an app like twitter for ubuntu or something like this and watch porn on it? Have you ever tried to bypass the pluckeye, I remember it veing possible to bypass it by downloading external apps or something similar.

    Edge doesnt allow add ons, and there isn't a 3rd party app either

    This is a reply from a friend who owned an xbox:

    Here's how you block porn from xbox completely. First make a new email on Google and use that email to make a Microsoft account you need to use this account to create an xbox family and then add your xbox account(s) to it. When all accounts are added they need to be made into members not operators if they are operators this will cause problems(there should only be one operator and thats the account you just created), then you need to go to the family setting online and turn on "block adult sites". When you do this, it also gives you an option to put in sites you want to always be blocked, put in sites you want to be blocked, like MSN.com, and Microsoftedge.com.Now when all this is done you have to be willing to do something that a lot of people might not be willing to do, you must give up all emails that are in the family. To do this you need to go into Gmail, and click manage Google account, then go to the security section and change your recovery information and remove the phone number verification completely, and make the email verification into the account you used to create the xbox family and then change that accounts email verification to the email you just changed if you have multiple accounts you have to do this to all of them, make sure the email verification isn't and email you have access to.Now you need to go into the Microsoft family website and on the account(s) you're trying to block porn from you need to turn on allow activity reports. After this you now need to go into your xbox and sign in with the account you used to make the xbox family, using this account you need to go into setting>system> signed out content restrictions. Then click create guest key(MAKE SURE Your other account(s)don't see this option) and on that same page turn off the setting "allow accounts to be added or downloaded it should be a little checkmark you need to uncheck. Now save this guest key into a pluckeye lockbox or something like it. After this you now to change every password on all accounts. When I say this I mean you need to change your password on your Microsoft account your password on your Google account for the same email, on all your emails. Its easier to make both password the same, but make sure no two emails have similar passwords. Save the password(s) in a pluckeye lockbox. Be sure to write down the email to make it clear what password is for what email. Now there is one more problem to address, on your Xbox there are many browsers that aren't blocked automatically, and they do allow you to watch porn, you need to either find and install all browser apps so you can block them and reinstall them or you might be even able to block them from the "always blocked" page without having to install all the of them, this is very tedious and leaves a lot of room for error because it if there's even one app that allows you to watch porn left you WILL find it trust me, so there is one way to make sure that this doesn't happen and you must block the xbox store. This is drastic but it was way better than trying to find all the Browser apps, or apps that could allow you to view porn. After this you need to delete all the accounts from your phone and make sure if you copied and pasted any passwords they are deleted from clipboard. Now if you have an accountability partner this whole process would be much easier. All you have to do is get your partner to create an xbox family add your accounts on there, block adult sites and block Microsoft store, then have him/her sign in on your Xbox, create a guest key and then turn of the "allow accounts to be added or downloaded setting". Then you just need to change the password to your account on Microsoft and Google for all accounts, and save them in a pluckey lockbox. After that delete all your accounts from your phone and your good. I know this post seems long and unnecessary detailed but everything here is something you need to do. Trust me I learned the hard way so you don't have to, it took me a while to find something that works and now I can finally say that I can't watch porn on my xbox. I'm not going to claim this is perfect, if you come across a problem tell me and ill try to fix it or if you fix it reply and ill try to edit it on here. There also might be errors on here, I'm very tired at the moment but this is the best time to write this down

    Does anyone have advice for blocking Mastodon without having to block a million servers?

    Great suggestions, I have been wondering lately about this:

    I think theoretically we can develop a modded reddit & twitter app from their API that removes the NSFW content (because they are already identified to be shown or not shown in the official websites). We can also build a browser that's either based on Firefox and Chrome and by default, blocks all Porn list websites and social media websites. I may consider doing something like that in the future as a developer.

    You should check out pluckeye browser from the play store. For twitter and reddit forks, they would be really helpful for everyone in this community, best of luck with that!

    If you mean blocking it just from your browser, you should try pluckeye's keyword blocking, aka flee rules. example:
    pluck + flee word mastodon
    will block all pages containing the word mastodon. Not sure if that is what you're looking for.

    I have a script that generates a list of public servers for use with dnscrypt-proxy.

    Here is the script:
    Code:
    echo -e "=joinmastodon.org\n=instances.social\n"
    curl -sSL --resolve "instances.social:443:`dig a instances.social @1.1.1.1 +short | sed -z '$ s/\n$//'`" 'https://instances.social/list.json?q%5Busers%5D=&q%5Bsearch%5D=&strict=false' --compressed | jq -r '.instances[].name' | sort -u | sed -e 's|^|=|g'
    And here is the current list: https://gist.github.com/NFAugustine/5961d4cd2e5145ddf599361a59963d44

    There seem to be several changes each day.

    If you were using this in a hosts file you would only need to replace the "=" sign with "0.0.0.0 " on each line.

    I just got a notification that the file I shared on GitHub was deleted. I suppose because some of the domain names are pornographic, etc.

    Yes, check out the windows thread. You can get rid of safe mode by modifying the registry or using plucky.
