Why doesn't Friendica show me my own content warnings, or abstracts as they're called in Friendica ?

@Hypolite Petovan @hoergen That seems like a weird choice to me, because it doesn't allow users to preview their posts and see how it looks to other users. Also abstractions are not always content warnings, they can be used for other things.

I understand that some users may want to hide their own CWs/abstractions from themselves, but I wish this was an opt-in setting or something, currently I have no way to change this behavior.

For abstracts, they change the way posts look on remote systems, there's no easy way for us to show you all the ways it's going to look on target platforms. Same with content warnings that we do not support nor encourage on our own platform. There is a workaround but that's pretty much how far we'll go on this particular feature.

@Hypolite Petovan @hoergen But other friendica users are able to see the content warnings on my post right ? It would be nice if I can see the same thing. I'm not asking to add any particular feature, abstractions are already supported, its just that user's can't see their own abstractions which is kinda weird.

@Tobias @Michael Vogel @Hypolite Petovan Maybe its better to allow users to choose this for themselves. Some users may prefer to see their own abstracts, this improves consistency and would also work as a preview. Some other users may want to hide their own abstracts like the above message explains. So letting the users choose for themselves might be a good idea πŸ€”
