Having been here since 2016, I can tell you there is definitely no such thing as a consensus on usage of content warnings on the fediverse. It's a decentralized network that doesn't belong to any one party, so by definition there is no single culture on it. Different corners have different expectations and customs.

@Gargron I think it's a great discussion (though I seem to get blocked by someone every time I wade into it). I'm still very interested to see a section on that in an open source "constitution" of sorts for the fediverse. Servers could adopt the constitution in whole or in part.

@Gargron honestly it’s fantastic having different servers for different cultures and expectations, caters for everyone and keeps everyone in their own safe internet haven

@Gargron Thank you. People often think that their vision of the Fediverse IS the Fediverse.

And people who have been here a long time have a nasty habit of telling new people how to behave.

what about having an option to block/report an account AND its followers in few steps? When being targeted, I heard that it helps for a bulk whack-a-mole system..

Eugene has been more than here. He helped build the place. Listen to him and stop the CW policing.

@Gargron I subscribe to the “don’t be a dick” school of thought on CWs

@Gargron the password reset function seems to be broken for me. I’m not getting an email from the system.

@Gargron Will the Mastodon update be available on Google Play in the near future?

For my part, I've always seen them as something at the discretion of the author. As the reader, you have a plethora of tools to disengage from unwanted content on Mastodon—with even better filters coming in 4.0—and harassment is not one of them. People who are arriving now have as much right to be here and bring their own culture as the ones who came before them.

@Gargron Is this where we post random issues we might be having with our accounts? 🙃

@Gargron is there a mobile app that lets you bypass CWs? The official one doesnt seem to have that option.

@Gargron I think that is the case but how should this work across instances. While some instances might benefit from not having CW on things like news, others would not want it on their timeline.

I was thinking if Mastodon could technically implement a CW setting instance to instance. Where one instance can choose to CW all posts from another instance.

@Gargron Word. You a real one for posting this. Since I've arrived here I've seen a bunch of gatekeepers telling people what they can or cannot do, effectively standing against what I thought this place was supposed to be. ✌🏽
