I see that a bunch of people have already blocked me. That's great, seriously! If you don't like the kind of stuff I talk about - and I can certainly imagine many people might not - I really don't want to force it on you.
And to my instance administrator: If I'm too much trouble, please just say the word and I'll move elsewhere.
@mattblaze Didn’t see your prior toot, though I wanted to comment that there is a precedent on mastadon, culture wise, of people hiding topics behind content warnings
I doubt this will be the last of these kinds of interactions, as the exodus from twitter will bring more people unaware of the history.
Given I’m also new to all of this, just wanted to give context to what you saw on your previous post
CWs, meta
@malcircuit @mattblaze I’m curious to see what happens in the future. Probably will be some fracturing, but may be relegated to more specific topics than a broad spectrum? Who knows
@bit0fun
Matt knows, and he's (justifiably, IMO) pushing back, as adopting the practice would basically silence him. I'm responding, because I imagine he's exhausted at telling ppl he already knows about CW "norms", and that those norms lack nuance.
@mattblaze
@f1337 @mattblaze
Makes sense; I wasn't stating that in favor or against the practice
@bit0fun
Ack all good, my reply was terse and direct because I lack social grace. 😂 I didn't assume any position on your part. ☮️
@mattblaze
No worries! :)

@bit0fun @mattblaze Yeah, I highly doubt this is either first or last time someone from birdsite takes issue with CWs
