the reason samsung went with exynos for the S22 Ultra in the UK instead of snapdragon it used in the USA is because in the colder climate of the UK it's useful for your phone to double as a hand warmer

my thought is that right now it's all or nothing in terms of when you use a "CW" your post will be hidden

if instead people can choose that only certain topics are default hidden and the rest aren't, then there's a lot less "but i don't want to hide this" stigma against using a subject line

not sure if this has been thought about before or if some other flavour of activitypub does it this way but i wonder if "CW"s would be better utilised if they were treated as email subject line and only defaulted to closed if a word in your custom blacklist appeared on it

i think that would push people to describe the content of posts much more if they're not implied to be opt-in, though this would also need a defacto "standardisation" of subjects, for example "uspol" vs "us politics"

can any out there explain to me how a user is supposed to document a system they're trying to find documentation on in the first place

it's a little disheartening when all of your friends agreeing to "i miss [old thing]" isn't followed by all of your friends moving to use the version of [old thing] that is still widely available because the status quo of large corporations running our online lives for us is so impossible to break away from

chat programs don't have online lists and notifications when your friends come online so you can be excited to go talk to them like they used to anymore
