I don't really care much that you're into this stuff and want to share it with the world, but can you at least make sure when you repost loli that the original poster marked it as nsfw?

@alyx I've no clue what it marked as NSFW and what isn't.
I'm only responsible for the things I post.
I don't have NSFW hidden 99.9% of the time so I've no idea what is and isn't marked

@sjw @alyx I don't share nearly as much as you do but whenever I want to boost something, I click the hide media button just to make sure it's marked as nsfw first

What are you talking about?

@sjw @beardalaxy
Difference in how Mastodon and Pleroma work. In Mastodon, even if you have display nsfw by default, you can still hide any image post, and if the image was originally marked as sensitive by the poster, you can see it.
Sensitive content vs non-sensitive content:

@alyx @beardalaxy oh yeah pleroma has that too. That's literally only a frontend local only thing (same goes for mastodon). If it's unmarked and you boost it then it's still unmarked. If you hide the media before boosting it then the media is hidden for your but you're the only person on the fediverse they're hidden for.

@sjw @beardalaxy
I know I'm only hiding on my timeline, and has no effect anywhere else. That's not the point. The point is this is a way I can check if someone's posted media was marked as sensitive or not by OP, and if it's clearly nsfw, but not marked as such, I can avoid reboosting to people who might not want to see that.

You say "pleroma has that too", but checking on my kiwi account, I don't seem to find a way to toggle media to be hidden or visible on posts that weren't marked nsfw. And if I disable "hide sensitive posts", I can't seem to toggle nsfw posts either. So unless we're talking past each other, from what I can see there is indeed a difference in how these things are implemented.

No, actually the point of that feature is in case you come across something that wasn't marked and it's triggering you, you can easily hide it.

It's intended use case is for things that weren't marked as sensitive but that you're sensitive to.

I'm not sure what you think you're doing exactly since literally anything will be marked as nsfw for you when you click that, not just things that are marked as NSFW.

@sjw @beardalaxy
Again, you still miss my point. I get that this is not the intended purpose of the feature. But I can still use this to see if the author of the post marked it as sensitive or not, as the text displayed between a post that was marked as sensitive and one that wasn't will be different (as seen in the attachments, one says "media hidden", the other "sensitive content". The latter was marked as sensitive when it was posted, the former wasn't). So even if I were to have "display nsfw posts by default" in my settings, I can still double check if the OP tagged the media as NSFW.

I've checked your instance too, but I don't have an account so I don't know if having one changes anything, but I simply do not see a way to hide a post that wasn't marked as NSFW. A post that was marked as NSFW can be displayed by clicking on it, and hidden back by clicking the X button, reverting thus to the edited neckbeard pleroma-tan. But posts with safe media don't have a X button to hide the image as far as I can see.
