I keep saying posts marked as “OC” but I have no idea what that means. Does anyone know?

    I see, so Twitter/Mastodon is made of so much repost material that now the original content is supposed to be marked as such.

      no, the people who started mastodon just have a lot of “tumblr” culture. they also have “trigger warning” options, self-censor/blurred pic options, etc. Just a different culture. A lot of kbin users I’m guessing are ex-redditors where we don’t really do that sorta stuff lol.

          Reddit has literally none of those features in it’s code so idk what you’re talking about. Some subreddits used the “nsfw” flagging for self-censor/blur but that’s not quite the same thing. “trigger warning” stuff if it was in a subreddit was just manually tagged or used link flair.

          Mastodon has explicit technical functionality for these things.
