im talking about stuff like stuff likemh

andoh
(which i still dont know what it means) and to a lesser extent others likepol
anduspol
when you see an abbreviation like this as a relative newcomer, it tells you nothing. your only options are to either open the cw to learn what its about and potentially see something you dont want to (completely defeating the point) or ignoring it and never finding out what the abbreviation means
for a platform like fedi which prides itself on being accessible, this honestly feels like a massive oversight. why make the barrier to entry higher than it needs to be like this? -
