How is you experience using them ? (I know BlueSky is invite only, but perhaps someone got lucky) I registered in Mastodon recently and i’m getting the same feeling(and problems) when started using lemmy.

    CW stands for “Content Warning”. It’s a feature that allows users to hide their posts behind a warning message.

    Some commonly used CWs include NSFW, Politics, Mental Health (Some times shortened to “MH”, often with a +/- depending on sentiment), Spoilers, Food, Alcohol/drugs, and flashing GIF/video.

      …Food. Hmmm. Food?

      I understand a warning for gore or nudity or fascism or whatever needing a content warning, but what exactly did food ever do to anyone?

        I think it’s an attempt to be considerate of those with eating disorders?

      Can you also unhide certain tags, I can see the value but at some point without that feature it could get really annoying.
