Is a spoiler warning like this enough to warn us not to look at content, or should spoilers be behind a NSFW tag?

    I prefer nsfw to be reserved for nsfw plus it usually only blurs images on the clients I use. If it’s a huge spoiler maybe have a few newlines between the warning and the content so it gets cut off in the preview. If you mean for images I’m not sure but still think that the text warning is enough but it’s not like the steam page doesn’t give us a few glimpses with the updates anyway.

    This is An example of a spoiler

    Lemmy Supports Spoilers in the body of posts, I would use those for text posts, and avoid spoilers in the title completely. Images I think the title thing is right

    This seems good enough for me. I think I’d prefer the NSFW tag, but I can see that being an issue for folks who block NSFW tagged posts because they don’t want to see nudity or gore.

      Exactly, a lot of people block all NSFW posts and they will miss your tagged posts. I think the spoiler warning was perfectly fine.
