Tags to use for photosensitive content
[Plain text: Tags to use for photosensitive content End plain text.]
"Flashing lights" and "flashing" are good catch-all tags, even if there is no flashing or strobe effects. The reason being is that these are the most common tags that photosensitives will have filtered. Blinkies are included!
"Eyestrain" is a good tag for content with lots of high-saturation and bright colors, or high contrast. This is not exclusive to gifs and videos, but also still images and artwork.
"Glitch" is referring to glitch effects, which can trigger photosensitivite conditions. While not the ideal tag, it is best used as well as the first two in the list.
From the notes - "strobing" and "strobing lights" are also used, but not as often as the first two. For strobe effects.
Tags that should not be used for photosensitive content
[Plain text: Tags that should not be used for photosensitive content End plain text.]
Any type of tag that includes "tw," "cw," or any other changes to the base tag. To Tumblr, the tag "tw flashing lights" and "flashing lights" are entirely separate tags. Someone who has "flashing lights" filtered will not automatically have "tw flashing lights" filtered. There are so many variants of these alternative tags that it is hard for photosensitives to filter them all, so using the base tags is the best for safety.
Any tags that use a photosensitive condition as the warning. The most common one is "tw epilepsy," which shows up in the search for "epilepsy" on this site, which will make sure that those who are epileptic will see that content. Think of it as similar to putting body-checking posts with "tw ED" and it showing up for people with EDs who are trying to recover. Other tags like this include "epileptic content" and "photosensitivity warning," and it can also make discussion of these conditions harder to find for those experiencing it.
The tag "seizure warning" is not a viable tag because it is not a warning of what the post contains, only what it may cause. People need to know what a post may contain through the tags to identify how much of a risk that content is for their condition.
Do not use any community tags as a filter tag, such as "epilepsy", "photosensitivity", "photosensitive epilepsy", etc. This puts your post in the tags used by the group you are trying to avoid seeing them. That will make sure everyone with that condition sees it.
