LB: I hate to be a jerk but... yeah... you know?

Tech is my hobby and on and off job and asking me to CW that is utterly ridiculous tbh

It's like, half of what I post is tech shit

I just advise you not follow if you don't like tech posts tbh

I try to CW what I think is appropriate. I do not want to overuse CW's because then people click right through them and see stuff they actually don't want to see. This is happening to some of my friends and it's kinda bullshit tbh.

Yes my take is "it's compassion and being considerate of others to /not/ tag your shit excessively" when it really don't need a tag.

Maybe that's too spicy for you, idk.

fwiw it's gotten so bad with the tags I literally just ignore half the posts on here

Although I'd like to see more pol tags my solution for that is to just mute people who don't do that, because I can't change other people, but I can change who I listen to

Perhaps others should think about that more...

(god especially rn with this border shit I am so sick of seeing that)

I don't want to become acclimatised to clicking through it like I was so now I do the opposite: I literally try not to click through things.

I think @kaniini was onto something when he mentioned adding summaries by keyword or something like that

Of course that means people will try to game the system because they're dick and insist on shoving their politics down your throat whether you want it or not. But those people can be handled with... just muting or blocking them.

@Elizafox maybe that’s the thing, that how we do CWs is good but... rudimentary. it’s inverted: we expect users to use CWs in anticipation of the needs of others, but those needs conflict and vary so that a user can’t seriously accommodate everyone. i wonder about allowing users to create rules which apply CWs to others’ content (even if only in their own UI) in order to give folks some less inverted control.

that is the point of how I am designing it in Pleroma, yes.

@kaniini @Elizafox seems pretty awesome, can’t wait to give it a try :D

@garbados @Elizafox this would be the keyword mute we've been asking for for so long, with settings like. CW posts mentioning x. Don't show posts with y.
Etc.

@maloki @garbados @Elizafox one other important aspect of keyword mute is probably making it easy to import keyword lists. maybe even having a few presets.

right now Mastodon makes it easy to import block lists and that's great, and keyword mutes probably deserve the same functionality

@garbados @Elizafox a suggestion I saw a while back was to allow reddit-style up/downvote for "needs a content warning", with tag-cloud style abstract words if the content owner didn't select one.

@Elizafox like, i’m right there with you. i hate seeing untagged pol, but what pol *is* is itself a political subject. i talk about tech so much that i tend not to CW it out of a sense of mundanity, but i recognize that untagged tech can give some folks bad feels. i feel like a better solution is possible.
