did you know that the #ActivityPub plugin for #WordPress supports "content warnings"?

ActivityPub

The ActivityPub protocol is a decentralized social networking protocol based upon the ActivityStreams 2.0 data format.

@[email protected] I do, but I don't like how it's a Mastodon-ism that overloads the (albeit unused?) summary property as CW.

My unsubstantiated prediction is that either one of @[email protected] or SWF will come up with an FEP for content warnings in the next two quarters.

@julian that is true! step by step

@julian it's one of the items on the AP Trust & Safety Taskforce's hit list — we're just needing to reach consensus about approach.

There's effectively 2 different use-cases:
- hide content as part of a joke
- hide content due to subject matter (in which case you possibly also want to have content labels or ratings)

But this is something we definitely want to have a solution for.

@[email protected] I'd say you should also use <details> and <summary> to partially hide content, but I think Mastodon uses that too as part of their CW?

Best of luck!

@pfefferle Nice!

@julian mmm, I'm thinking that might be an implementation detail?

But here's the issue: https://github.com/swicg/activitypub-trust-and-safety/issues/1
