“So, you mean they’re homophobic?”

“Well, no, but-”

“So they’re misogynistic? Racist? Transphobic? Ableist???”

“N-no, actually they enforce strict banning on all those things, BUT-”

“So they bully people into suicide?”

“Nooo, they require content warnings for even mentions of suicide, BUT!”

“…Yes?”

“I saw one of them say 'death to nazis!”

“So they’re the opposite of 4Chan?”

“NO!”

    Ideally tags (besides NSFW) would exist as their own “thing” on lemmy and people sensitive to X type of content would be able to opt out of those posts. This feels like the best thing short of that.

      yes i really hope they eventually get around to programming in SV and harm tags to opt out of, right now we just have to be OK with nsfw tagging potentially problematic material. and informing people to be serious about NSFW tags
