We understand that some topics can be difficult to see or engage with. TalkLife provides tools to help you filter and reduce exposure to content that may feel triggering, so you can create a more comfortable experience.


How content filtering works

  • Some posts are automatically filtered when the original poster applies a trigger warning
  • You can choose additional trigger categories to filter content across your feed
  • You can also create custom keyword filters based on your personal preferences

While we do our best to filter content accurately, results may vary depending on how posts are tagged.
