Having been here since 2016, I can tell you there is definitely no such thing as a consensus on usage of content warnings on the fediverse. It's a decentralized network that doesn't belong to any one party, so by definition there is no single culture on it. Different corners have different expectations and customs.

Interesting comment on Hackernews regarding a possible scenario/long term risk should Mastodon threaten the corporate sphere of social media.

One weird thing, maybe a bug, with mastodon, is searching a tag, very commonly, i decide to type a generic word, like "#art" in the search, and the result window contains result *starting* with that word, but not the word itself, and that are much less commonly used. So if i really want to see that result, i need to directly edit the url, and then i get the result. Sure, i *can* do that, it's not hard, but discoverability is not great, and it's getting less common for browsers to even show urls.

So, DeviantArt opted in, by default, all existing art on the website for use by third-party AI.

Without notifying their users. For all existing art.

You have to go through your art pieces one by one and tick a box that you do NOT consent to this.

I learnt about it on Birdsite, by accident.

And of course, any inactive user or dead user will have their art used by AI models from now on, even though they never agreed to this.

Disgusting.

Dear Twitter ex-pats. When we all flounced out of Twitter loudly proclaiming we were going to Mastodon this sent a message to trolls, nazis that they could set up servers & come here.

If anyone gets harrassed with hatespeech pls note that that is not the culture of Mastodon. Please report & block those users. If you notice a pattern from the same weird domain, block that domain, write a post of the server name w/ a hashtag fediblock so your server admin can follow up & block it for everyone.

The problem with capitalist, engagement-driven social media, in one slide.

"The Earth is flat" vs "The Earth is round" get very different levels of engagement. "Where would I want place my advert?"

Do wear a fitting proper mask (respirator) and avoid crowds.
Do not get infected. Do not get reinfected. Try as harder as you can.
