@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.

@garbados @Elizafox

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 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.

@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

@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.
