For the uninitiated, generally NSFW is for sexual contents and NSFL is for gory contents. People may want to see one but not see the other at any time for any reason. I have seen this feature requested over the years in Reddit but it never happens. Maybe now some instance can finally implement it?

    Having gone through the code a bit, the NSFW handling looks very baked in, so it’s not a small ask. The smart approach would be to add an arbitrary tag system and handle it that way.

        I love it when my tape quacks.

        FYI it’s duct tape. Duck Tape is a brand that sells a type of duct tape, among other tapes.

          “Duck tape” actually has a longer history than “duct tape.” While there is also branded Duck™ tape, duck tape, as in adhesive cotton duck, has been around since the 1800s or so.

        I think it’s both. Instead of trying to update the codebase with one new database attributes for each conceivable way to tag content, you simply put in facilities to abstract that - “show only posts with tag foobar”, “hide all posts with tag foobar”.
