Letting people know that whatever they’ll see upon clicking is incredibly based/wholesome/good.

Or for example, Content Warning for dead bodies, but also the dead bodies happen to belong to dead Nazis.

What would that be called?

    Warning implies something negative. Someone warns you that there will be rain tomorrow, but you don’t get warned that tomorrow will be a nice day.

    Following this train of thought, “content notification” could be used as a neutral or catch-all term.

      I see content warnings about things that I, personally, don’t find distasteful (insects, etc) all the time. So it’s not like the system can’t bear things that most/all people aren’t triggered by.
