@cat can you repost this behind a cw on anti-homelessness please? :3
@vahnj tbqh that feels like it would be participating in the “out of sight out of mind” attitude which is prevalent
@cat well you're talking about anti-homelessness policies
i know several folks on here who can be triggered by reading stuff like this
it's about being respectful of folks not censoring :/
@vahnj yep, fair, this just sucks
@cat yea x_x
(if you repost i'm gonna boost it)
@vahnj did it
being able to retroactively add a cw to a thread would be a real neat feature for masto to support
@cat hmm that gives me an idea
what if post edits are not "edit post and propagate the changes" but simply "delete the post and apply the changes in a new post" and just limit edits to like, 1 time
@vahnj that could work too but I mean, the problem is threading I think
@cat oh heck good point
@vahnj I mean I feel like adding a CW is a difficult thing to meaningfully abuse but maybe I’m too optimistic
@cat considering you can just shove whatever text in it like a post, it's just as abusable imo
i don't remember what the limitation is on why we can't do post edits though
@vahnj I mean, yeah, and propagation of those updates (read: cache invalidation) is probably going to be a pain given Masto’s architecture
