Doesn't using #cw on Mastodon to just hide stuff kinda dilute the whole purpose of actual content warnings? I'm still very confused about the way this feature has evolved and would love to know more about why that's acceptable.

@oldbie 100% agree! I asked one user how they were generating "show more/less" links on text posts, and was shocked to find out they're using content warning features for that.

It feels very "tell me you don't care about content warnings without telling me" to me.
