I don't think anyone reads text posts with content warnings unfortunately.

I'm the opposite! I usually make one pass through reading just the CWed posts (the ones I'm interested in, anyway), and then if I have the time and energy I make a second pass for the non-CWed posts.
I just always get less interactions with CW posts even pictures. But it's all worth it to make sure the un-jaded eyes of youngins don't see my unclean drivel.
@Hedonprincess
Could be something much more complex at play here, too.
It's not well formulated in my head yet but: by not CWing posts you might have built an audience that responds to non-CWed posts, and the audience that responds to CWs stopped following. Or something like that.
Or maybe it is as simple as you said, too.
