OMG if there is any time to use a CW then it's to label your lewds and nudes. Not everyone is browsing Mastodon in a private location.

Seriously though, fedi was *built* by furries, trans and queer folk, disabled neurodivergent people.

This is *the reason* the culture here is what it is. Why CWs are a thing. Why image descriptions are a thing. Why privacy matters here. Why moderation tools not only exist, but are usable — and used.

So #KeepFediWeird.
