@Shrigglepuss not to go all "tourists", but the several Twitter influxes have definitely watered it down ._.
And Eugen had the opportunity to nudge people into using CWs, i.e. by making the CW field always enabled, making it visually more prominent, changing the placeholder text tosomething like "subject, title, content warning" to reflect both the actual usage and the API designation ("subject line").
But instead, he put hazard bars around it to deter people from using them.

@Shrigglepuss Agreed. My timeline has gone from probably 30% CWed to maybe 1%. And I think the new design will end the practice entirely.

agreed!

@rwg @Shrigglepuss They changed the design again https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/32543

That definitely looks better. I'm glad they listened to folks who argued against the hazard design:

@rwg @WeirdWriter It's gutting to me that it managed to become a thing in the first place but I'm relieved they've at least realised how ridiculous it was and are backtracking it
