Edit: I was searching for a “meta” community, since this is a post on Lemmy about current Lemmy limitations… But it turns out that this might very well be off topic. I apologise if it is the case… I would gladly take suggestions on what community would be best for this post, BTW.

    I know of the spoiler feature, however it doesn’t work on all clients.

    For example, on my client, I can immediately (without clicking/tapping) see ‘:::’, followed by: spoiler Got it! “NSFW” test, the image, and finally, ‘:::’. (It is without the single quotes, I added them for being explicit).

    Point is, aside from having a convention (like having “NSFW” anywhere in the image alternate text) where images are tagged NSFW, or a proper spoiler tag that is easy to parse and works everywhere (this one doesn’t), I don’t see how this can work.

    And mod removed your image in the meantime 😇

    Yeah, the modlog says “NSFW. Next time use the spoiler tag or post a link.”

    That is ignoring that a spoiler tag will simply not work on most clients… But sure, let’s pretend.

    Edit: now there’s a spoiler. Let’s see if it works… 🤞
