Um are you serious right now? Even in my 90s fandoms most people would warn for basics like non-con and graphic violence. Sure, not everyone did, but not everyone does now either.

That was a thing, but it also seemed like it would (in most cases I've seen) be more fully integrated in to the summary than modern trigger/content warnings. From what I remember, super-loud warnings were seen as either patronizing or as an attempt to show that the story is super dark and edgy, neither of which seemed to go down well. But hey, I wasn't everywhere at once, so I concede that there might have been a different climate elsewhere.

I dunno, maybe it's less about the warnings themselves than it is about the tone with me? I don't like the roaring-klaxon ALLCAPS!!1! thing going on with them. They kind of remind me of that old CapAlert site. Or of the "TOO GRAPHIC FOR THEATERS!" labels on direct to video horror movies/"WARNING, SUPER DUPER SPICY!" labels on bottles of bland gimmicky hot sauce.

Alright, I see what you mean with the all-caps and things and irrelevance, but to me that seems like a the new type of immature fandom brats.
The lingo has changed but immature fans haven't lbr.

The lingo has changed but immature fans haven't

Truth. :/

People warned for non-con and violence, but that was about it. Certainly, there weren't the present-day laundry lists of harsh language, talk of eating disorders, talk of past abuse, drug use, drinking, politically incorrect opinions, allergic reactions, aliens, etc.

So much this.

And now I'm reminded of something funny I was reading about the content warnings on IMDB. There were things like "a boy burps loudly," which I found especially hilarious for some reason. (WHAT IF THE BURP STARTLES YOU?! WHAT THEN?)

I have nothing to say but LOL!

And... burrrrRRRPPPP!!!
XD

This. I've been reading fic for more than 15 years and warning for those two things was always a thing, but never really anything beyond that.

Maybe we go in quite different fandoms because bringing out the laundry list of every possible little trigger is not something I've seen much of, though it seems to go hand-in-hand with tumblr-style tagging irrelevance.
