Although I would like to NSFW content in my timeline, I think its better to have them blurred by default and only visible if I click on it. And any such post from NSFW subreddits should also be blurred by default. Saying this because I noticed a post from a NSFW subreddit in the front-page and it was displayed without any blurring. I can anticipate this leading to potentially awkward situation otherwise, especially when browsing the site during a slow day at work.
I’m starting to work on this topic. I have made the first temporary changes, they are not perfect yet, but I will improve them over time. Soon, there will be the possibillty of full customization.
Kbin is new enough and still growing/getting set up, can we just get it built right this time from the start and get TWO clearly different NSF tags? NSFW for sexually explicit and NSFL for death/gore/other.
I like the idea of having two distinct tags for both as long as they both are blurred/spoilered by default. With two distinct tags, people could opt out of hiding one but not the other.
Three tags! One for spoilers! Many subreddits would use NSFW as double duty to mark spoilers for shows and movies. Let’s make sure we have a separate tag for that too!
I thought about that too this morning. We have the chance to redefine different “NSF”-tags instead of just having one. I don’t mind seeing “light” NSFW content, but it might not be the best idea to open porn on my workplace PC or when i sit in a train. I also don’t mind seeing most NSFW content in private, but i really don’t need to see traumatizing stuff.
I propose the following:
- Nudity/Porn
- NSFL (potentially traumatizing, death, gore etc.)
- NSFW (other stuff that doesn’t fall in those categories, like people fighting, puke, slight injuries)
- Spoiler
of course, there will never be 100% agreement about what content fits to what category, but that’s always been the case and can be discussed in the comments.
To add more; we can even add comment tags so that we don’t have to use things like “/s” and instead have a clear thingy that says [Sarcasm], even if it sounds silly, people already use tone indicators so this just simplifies the whole thing. No relation to NSFW but similar.
I know
Redditthe hive mind usually hates emojis but I think a lot of the tone indicators you wish for could be solved by people using them more commonly.Emojis have a long history on the internet. It doesnt seem so long ago that every forum post ended with some form of 😎
I think most people dont mint them, its just when they real obnoxious obviosuly troll levels with 15 in a row mid sentence
Tbh I miss being able to use them sometimes. It’s really only reddit where I’ve seen people lose their minds over an emoji.
