Bring back CWs. For US politics at least.
My anxiety level cannot take that face or the constant worry about fascism.
Thanks.

@crcarlin totally! as an example, I refer to #CW as #ContentWrappers instead of warnings. I don’t remember who suggested that… I’d like to credit them!
@the_rabid_rabbit As a relative newcomer to this place, like yourself, I prefer to comply the guidance, and follow the conventions of #Mastodon on #ContentWarnings and/or #ContentWrappers - and in the limit, I would rather offend newcomers, than I would those who created this place. Though obviously, I prefer to offend neither.

Yes. Please remember to use Content Wrappers. And alt text is easy!

Thanks for the lecture, but I don't want to read stuff that gives me anxiety attacks. Please use #ContentWrappers for political content.
You don't know me.
You don't know what I've done.
You don't know what it cost me to do it.
Please use content wrappers for politics.
Good day!
I know not everyone has gotten the word about #ContentWrappers. However, many of us are averse to almost any part of American politics, even when we agree with the poster. So, to avoid temptation and to keep peace in the family, I might be selectively muting posts that trigger my existential terror. Thanks for understanding
@uanews
it is important to keep abreast of Ua developments and offer a variety of feeds:
1) a no-content-wrapper #CW feed
2) a feed with mostly #ContentWrappers
3) a digests feed with mostly summaries, perhaps daily
4) a feed without routine content wrappers but liberal use of #contentWarnings
Yes that is a big ask but maybe the various news services can figure this out.

I'd be interested to know how the different views on the use of #cw or #contentwrappers play out in the long run, mainly concerning how it may cause fracturing of communities.
If everyone just blocks the people that don't use cws, then those people will eventually be isolated. Not necessarily a bad thing if people just want to vent to each other, but not ideal for wider communication and interaction.
#ContentWarnings or #ContentWrappers. For those not using them because your PoV is that people following you won't mind - consider that you may not be getting boosts because people following your followers will.

in the new version of #mastodon (4.x) if you follow a #hashtag you should make a keyword filter to accompany it (because filters now basically #contentwrappers!),
then it wouldn't clutter your Home TL, that way your your friends update won't get buried under the flood of updates, if you can't be bothered with making list! #feditips #mastodontips

Am sensitive to the suggestion from some on here who suffer from exclusion, otherising, #racism etc who - despite the potential for triggering - would prefer that posts to warn, inform or build awareness - aren’t hidden. All too easy for those of us less affected to skate on past oblivious when in fact we should all be aware and #BeUpstanding here.. #ContentWrappers #DiscussingNotRowing

@FranchescaHarper
On the whole I’m not very pro
#ContentWrappers - I myself carry #MeToo and #racism trauma - but I feel I would rather people post/warn/inform freely about these increasingly prevalent dangers in our society.
OTOH.. this picture makes a good case for them.. 😂

I really love the CW option on here! It gives us a choice, and combined with the lack of incessant advertising, makes this a lovely place to be. May that never change!

@barongreenbacks @mikegalsworthy thanks for this - do you know how to wrap a boost..? Or even quote one as per previous place? The “booster” button has no interim options or am I missing something? #ContentWrappers #contentwarning
#contentwrappers #contentwarning
@dando @rhondda Appreciate this advisory. Can I solicit more..? Am getting worried about #ContentWrappers / #contentwarning - firstly do you know how/if we can content wrap for a boost..? And secondly someone somewhere found a switch to automatically and unilaterally unwrap wrappers - which old and ugly as I am - I would be happy to do but maybe I need to do this on the server and not in the app?

New ##mastadon and #fediverse friends: here's what I learned about #CW / #contentwarnings aka #contentwrappers via a thread shared below; esp note insight from @RadiantEmber about #tonepolicing >>>>
chops_ii@aus.social - @sheilamaverbuch
I asked this very same question earlier, and someone very helpfully shared this reply with me:
