Now that we're finally out of reddit, can we finally get different tag for NSFW and NSFL? (bookwormstory.social)

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?

It would be wonderful with something more granular than "NSFW"...

I would love if we got something even more granular like a "Content Warning: ".

Examples:

Content Warning: nudity - might be a painting with nude people, might be a photo of nude people, in essence if it isn't porn, but there's exposed genitals, butts or breasts.
Content Warning: porn - you can probably guess...
Content Warning: gore - images with gore, people missing body parts, often dead as well.
Content Warning: death - images with people dying, but without gore.
Content Warning: blood - images with some blood, but no death or gore. (often seen in news articles)
Content Warning: violence - people fighting, but without turning bloody.

These could of course be expanded with many more categories if need be.

EDIT: added violence by request

The first two and the last three are the same lol.

There really isn't any need for tuning them even further. They're both already niche enough as is. The people who are good with the two are good with both. The people good with the last three are 'good' with any. You genuinely cannot get any of them without the other lol.

Intensity warning is a good thing. Though it does make tagging complicated, but in this case overlapping tags would do. blood-death and gore-death and simply death.

probably shouldn't borrow the exact terms from fandom, but they have tag modifiers like 'dead dove: do not eat' which basically means this is an absolute celebration of the previous tag, so gore tag coupled with that tag is gore intensified to the max, while they also use tags 'slight mentions of gore' for only a bit of gore. but if you filter out gore both would still be filtered out.

AO3 runs on open source software and has a very robust tagging system.
