Thought that's been said before, even by me,
CWs should be configured by the viewer, not the sender

I should configure what words I want to be warned about and how, and the system should handle adding those warnings for me when I see other people's posts

That would get around the whole "I can't believe people need to cw eye contact" or whatever thing because if you don't need a warning for something, you wouldn't get one!

And also would get around the "wow I personally want [this one extremely mundane thing that bothers probably NO ONE else] to be hidden" problem

@masklayer This. Really we should be able to tag our posts with metadata and then on the viewer side be able to go 'oh yeah that tag is fine, always show' to add to their local whitelist.
@masklayer basically hoodie's dynamic CWs

Dynamically added content warnings for muted keywords, long posts, and animated imagery

this thread is for a feature set i have had i believe four different users request, that has a lot of power in it, and it is tied into the idea of combining content warnings and hidden images for better user effect: dynamically added content warnings for muted keywords, long posts, and animated imagery Continuing the discussion from Reworking CW/NSFW image systems for better userflow and design:

@masklayer i think there should be a user configurable list of auto-shown cw words prolly. ive ended up just expanding by default
@masklayer I disagree, since whether I want to see a particular CW depends on the day and who is posting.
