Amy GriswoldHi folks, please put posts about today's election behind a content warning! It's a way for people to control when and how much they want to engage, from "not at all" to "I am passionately interested in everyone's thoughts, but reading them needs to be 10% of my day, not 90% of my day, or I will break my brain."
Dave Lee@amygriswold Hm, I don’t think that’s a sustainable or useful practice. I think the onus should be on you (as in, everyone) to filter what they don’t want to see. Maybe a middle ground is to encourage hashtags to make that filtering easier.
@daveleeFT It's the norm on wandering.shop, which is my home server. It's sustainable and useful for the people who are doing it, in the places where they're doing it. mastodon.social may have different norms, which is fine; one of the virtues of decentralization is that we don't have to agree on one best way to use Mastodon.
Ryan Smith@daveleeFT @amygriswold I disagree and think that CWs are super useful. They're also easy and serve as a "tldr" and give the reader the option to consent seeing it.
