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...
@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.
