NSFW content and the single post view
We need to decide if we want to enable the NSFW shield in the (new) SPV. See https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora/issues/3336 and https://github.com/diaspora/diaspora/pull/4410#issuecomment-22986956
Let me summarize the points so far raised
Pros:
- A user may be pointed to a single post without knowing its contents.
- It's not always clear in the notifications if the post you participated on was NSFW or not.
Cons:
- Most of the time you go the the SPV to actually see the post, adding another click to that is bad UX.

Maybe one should have the option (in the Header-Bar) to enable / disable NSFW-Content for the current diaspora-session? So that you don't have to individually click every nsfw-shield but just decide "i'm at work / with friends" and turn it off - or turn it on, just as you want to.

I think it's superflous. There is no paging anymore in the new SPV, so noone can reach an NSFW post by accident, except if pointed to by someone else, in which case it is their responsibility.

Honestly, I think the NSFW is fine just on the stream, but putting it into a post is redundant. I agree on the point that adding an extra click to see a post is bad UX.

I think it's redundant except in the case where someone sends someone else a 'dodgy' link without a warning, but that's not the kind of case that Diaspora's software should be coding for, I don't think.
Block NSFW on the streams, as people haven't then signed up to seeing that image. Clicking a link to view a post in the SPV is in itself pretty much an authorisation to view that material.

I'd go for dumping the NSFW in SPV - good points by Jonne in the opening.

how about a "timed" overlay ... if a post is really #nsfw, the content is hidden and the overlay says something like "this content is #nsfw, showing it in 3 ... 2.... 1"
which would give you a chance to "hit the panic button" and close the tab/window.

Sounds... complicated. And still not really needed IMO.

It would only be annoying any place other than the stream.

Countdown overlay is also bad UX in my opinion. I'd rather do one more click - it's faster.

Personally I don't think we need it.
