@glip CWing is fine n good! If you don't want it all showing up on the main timelines, you can set the privacy to "unlisted" so it'll show up for your followers and be publicly visible, but WON'T show up on the local or federated timelines.

or, to go a step further, you can set heavy stuff to followers only for extra privacy, tho currently anyone can follow you. beyond THAT you can set things so that u have to approve followers and THEN post followers-only, but that's a bit much maybe.

@aflightybroad ohhhhhh okay that makes more sense, i didnt mind too much if it was on a timeline but i just didn't want to put it there if it wasn't supposed to be, but im glad cwing seems like it's basically enough?? thanks for the help

@glip you're welcome! there's a lot more options and things to get used to than twitter or tumblr so it can be a lil confusing at first. but yea the CW etiquette is fine.

@aflightybroad that's right there's def more options than twit or tumblr, but i feel like the way this is set up makes so much more sense for mental health reasons and reducing harassment fatigue and stuff... not having to read stuff i don't have the spoons for atm or w/e is really nice

@glip oh yeah not saying it's bad at all! i love it, having the CWs just to like ... prepare yourself, also, is really nice. knowing what a potentially upsetting post'll be about ahead of time is great. and i love the privacy options n levels!
there's just a lot and it was a bit confusing to me at first. 'w'; all of it is positive and makes sense to me.

@aflightybroad oh oops yeah didnt mean to make it sound like i was explaining that to you hahaha, i was just glad that there's actual thought going into it in a way that treats people as people and pays attention to their needs moreso than the other sites did? it feels like it acknowledges how people should use social media stuff for a more positive experience, and not a negative one! i love it

@glip i didn't think you were!! i was more worried how _i_ came across, it's ...... very early and i haven't had breakfast yet so i was like "oh i hope that didnt sound like i think its bad or TOO difficult!"
it's very nice! the fact that people can run their own instances OR you can pick 'n choose places to go of your own free will but still interact with people on other instances. finding a good atmosphere and admin/mod team. it's good stuff
