Reason:

These tags are in the same camp. Should they be separate tags just because one side is lewd over the other?

+1 to implication

I'd say it's probably worth keeping sexting as its own tag because you might not be able to determine if a text is lewd or not based on just the pictures rating or thumbnail post #1104313

An implication is a good idea. an alias is not. :)

A poor choice of words looking back on this, sorry for that. An implication is what I'm going for, not alias. I meant to say they're separate. As in texting isn't automatically added when adding sexting on appropriate images.

wait, but is it necessarily?

primarily between mobile phones. It may also include the use of a computer or any digital device.

usually "texting" is used to refer to the use of SMS and similar services, do we consider messages sent over other instant messaging services texting?

This is a good point. I think "sexting" can refer to any app that allows you to send messages and attach pictures, not just SMS. Though in furry porn, you might just see the text and pictures without seeing which app is used, raising a question about how much this is worth worrying about:

As an experiment, I searched the following:
discord_(app) sexting <- 0 results
reddit sexting <- 0 results
snapchat sexting <- 39 results
instagram sexting <- 0 results (tbh, I don't know what Instagram even is)
telegram sexting <- 5 results (not familiar with Telegram either)

Snapchat and Telegram might be problems for the implication.
