Here's a comment for incoming Twitter users: I've found that some are really put off by the way Mastodon requires push and pull to get to information. Rather than Elmo telling you what to read (and steering you to most incendiary content), you have to go look for it and choose to consume it. Most notably, I've come to think of "Content Warnings" as instead subject lines, just like you'd use in an email, so readers can scan whether they want to read further.
@emptywheel 100% of the content warnings ive seen have been for content that i do not find in any way offensive enough to warrant a warning. What I really do appreciate, though, is that on infosec.exchange you can make 11k character posts, so hiding a literal book behind a content warning for length is handy!

@Viss @emptywheel
The paradoxes of today are the prejudices of tomorrow, since the most benighted and the most deplorable prejudices have had their moment of novelty when fashion lent them its fragile grace.
