mastodon culture question: why hide images, longer posts under a content warning?

@vitriolix I think a lot of Mastodon users want to drive towards conversations and more engagements, and make things less flashy in general. I think that's one reason.
@eighthave looks like there are nice prefs around this so i can disable the content warning
@n8fr8 @eighthave see! i engaged!
@n8fr8 @vitriolix I would have liked a content warning on that 😜 At least this web client handles GIFs well, only starting when I click it, easy to stop, etc. Element kills me because the GIFs just keep going and going.
@eighthave curious how it pans out, I've seen that images in your posts drives up engagement a lot.
