overview for shepherd

This is an old topic from Reddit, sorry about that, but I think the community would benefit from separating porn and other types of nsfw by adding the nsfl tag. in c/kbinMeta@kbin.social

Just tagging things as Porn or Gore is a great idea! Let's mark stuff as what it is, not where it's... supposedly unsafe? lmao. Yes, you shouldn't be looking at porn while working, but there are plenty of non-work places where it's still not really appropriate.

I think there could be an argument for Gore being called like "Trauma" or something instead. Porn is broad, and I'd like another tag for "Viewer Beware" even if there isn't specifically Gore in it. A Gore tag feels more like a Sex tag, yes porn is sex but there's plenty of porn that isn't specifically sex.

Many of Kbin terms dont make sense.. Why not replace them? in c/kbinMeta@kbin.social

Magazine ->Community

Strong agreement.

Link -> Article

Maybe Link -> Website even, 'cause it's not always an actual news article.

Thread -> Post

Agree, mainly because I think most of us would say "I'm going to post this on kbin" but I haven't found a verb I like for ...starting? a new 'thread' lol. "I'm going to thread this on kbin"??

And also for branding issues lol, vs that big company.

Post (In microblog) -> Blog

Room for improvement here, but good start I think.

Commented -> Discussed

I think Comments is fine. Discussion is fine. I actually think this is where "threads" could have been used lol, but let's not.

Badges -> Labels
Labels is good. Badges isn't quite right. Stamp? Banner? Flag?

I vote both!

There's a lot of situations where shared bikes are a great idea, so to me that's a default "Yes!" answer lol.

But my own bike can be better suited to my needs and preferences, so that also becomes a "Yes!" to me too lol. For example, I usually prefer my bike's seat to the ones on shared bikes.

But! If I've walked to my friend's house, and we get invited to a game across town, I'll gladly pick up a shared bike rather than detour home lol.

It's really scary that I opened kbin to this and it's EXACTLY 5:37 lmao.

Wait so when am I supposed to boost? Upvotes sort now, so I should usually upvote and boost when I think something should be at the top?

Sometimes I really like that we still don't have too much content at the Fediverse in c/unpopularopinion@kbin.social

[–] shepherd@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Eh, yeah I can agree with the manageable amount of content! I even try to leave kbin.social set to Federation: Off, so that it's just the local community stuff to look at lol.

I do miss my niche hobby subreddits though, it's hard to live vicariously through other people's projects right now haha
