It's the same story with pretty much any platform. While you may know YouTube as the tool where AI/software randomly bans innocent channels and demonetizes videos based on false positives, it actually has a small army of human moderators. These poor folks are constantly exposed to some of the most vile content humankind produces >! ::: beheadings, rape, torture, child abuse::: !< etc.
I once worked on a project aiming to help their mental well-being, but honestly, while a step in the right direction, I don't think it made much difference.
Edit: attempting to nest multiple spoiler formatting
That's not how spoiler markup works here.
It works this way instead.
yo yo dirty stuff hereEdited to add: Apparently there's not exactly consensus across different interfaces for what spoiler markup is supposed to be. Aaaargh!!
Neither of those appear formatted as spoilers in Voyager (formerly WefWef).
Edit: But, appears properly in Memmy.
I'm also on Voyager; I don't think it has spoiler support.
Update: a github issue exists.
it seems like dev might not be focusing on that and he might actually need help in that.
Yup also doesn't work on Mlem for me
