I've found the best way to handle federating spoilers is to keep the title spoiler-free, and put them in the body of a text post - that at least requires a clickthrough from Mastodon.
I've never experimented with the NSFW tag due to complaints from lemmy users who want to filter out porn and gore, but don't care if they see spoilers.
I don't think a perfect solution exists.
It complicates things that I'm on a Mbin instance, which ostensibly combines forums and microblogging. But the preferred way of handling spoilers vs content warnings differ so much that federating "hidden" content isn't possible.
Yeah, the issue as I understand it is that there's no content warning system built into ActivityPub, so each platform has made their own implementation.
Edited the post to remove potential spoilers, mBin doesn't appear to federate the edits.
I was already pretty much over the threadiverse for other reasons but this sucks.
For spoilers use:
Title
Content

Good one. Now try opening that in Mastodon.
