Comment on Did something change recently with how Mastodon displays content from Lemmy / the threadiverse?
flamingos@feddit.uk 1 day agoIf it has a summary, I will use that as the content
But isn’t that how Mastodon handles content warnings? Baffling that they’d do it like that frankly given that it prevents long-form content (when masto actually starts supporting that) from being CW’d.

Not necessarily, no. Content warnings were implemented in Mastodon specifically as
summary
plussensitive
=true
. Perhaps not originally, but that is enforced now (all CW'd posts from Mastodon are marked sensitive). Might be Mastodon will CW notes that don't havesensitive
, out of caution, but this doesn't apply to non-Notes.So a summary included in a non-Note is not CW'd by Mastodon currently.

I know, I was just saying that it prevents a non-Note from being CW’d, as the
summery
is used as the post’s content. Masto treats aNote
marked assensitive
with nosummary
to just mean to blur the images.julian@activitypub.space 1 day ago
I suppose, although in that scenario theoretically one could add
as:sensitive
to mark the status as CW'd? I don't think CW logic is even run for non-Notes at the moment, though I could be mistaken.flamingos@feddit.uk 1 day ago
Masto interprets a
Note
set asas:sensitive
without asummary
to mean ‘blur any media attached, but don’t collapse the text content’. I believe the same is true for non-Notes, but obviously without thesummary
= CW logic.
