   PSA:
   Please use clear content warnings on your posts! Please don't use euphemisms! For example, instead of "weed" do "drug mention, cannabis" or "marijuana". This prevents other users from having to filter mundane words such as "weed", which refers to alot of regular plants in my back yard! This also helps users who aren't using filters, because "immobile" doesn't tell them anything; "immobile, fatfur, obesity" does help though. Instead of "🍆🍑", say "nsfw, sex, genitals".

   This isn't like Instagram where you have to use euphemisms to avoid being banned or shadow banned or hidden by "the algorithm". Using euphemisms here actually hurts instead of helping.

   Now users know to bookmark a post for later or to ignore it, & users who may have anxiety triggers related to the topic of your post can more easily filter it out & never have to see it. This makes fediverse safer & more accessible for everyone.

     @jackemled I'm missing a list of standardized CWs that we can use and filter with :comfy_cirno:

     @kaia Just don't use euphemisms in content warnings. Say what you mean.
