You're viewing a single thread.
I'd love a fediverse-wide tagging system for various kinds of NSFW (porn, gore, death...), Sports (ideally also by discipline), Anime, Music (again, with genres), Gaming etc. to hand-pick what I absolutely don't want to see.
On some Mastodon clients you can block hashtags, and on Lemmy you can block communities, so we're already pretty close. To do more would require a lot of self-tagging of posts and not everyone will do that. Or it would require analytics and automatic tagging that may not be accurate and would theoretically be a privacy nightmare.
I can never rely on people to self-tag posts. But tagging communities would be much more manageable and helpful.
And with apps we can filter text.
Do it like AO3 and enforce only about a dozen mandatory tags, and allow 'choose not to tag' tag if you don't want to tag, and you can choose to filter out the choose not to tag content..
Maybe communities should come with default tags. That would make it a lot easier.
