question: does "seuizure warning" work as a flashing lights tag?
i've seen epileptic tumblr users advocate against tagging stuff as "epilepsy warning" because search engines will catch the word "epilepsy," and show it to epileptics searching for epilepsy-related content. "seizure warning" has the same potential problem, but i don't think i've seen it discussed as much. i use tags like "flashing," "flashing lights," "flashing gif," "eye strain," "low framerate," etc. "flashing" and "eyestrain" are my go-tos, since they're more general, & therefore more likely to be filtered. i also tag every post with a gif in it, even if it doesn't specifically contain flashing lights. i'd recommend checking out photosensitivity- and accessiblity-related tags and blogs for clearer information; i don't have personal experience with epilepsy or seizures, and i'm not an accessibility expert, just someone with occasional migraines who cares about the subject ^-^
