I mean I can understand that some communities might be legit triggered by certain words, but just implement the filter between that instance and the users of that instance.
Imposing it on all instances would be insane. If you don’t like the words that other instance are showing then don’t use that instance. That’s the strength of the fediverse concept to me, policies tailored to the community that’s on an instance.
Yes that’s exactly what ml is doing. They have a slur filter.

Cool… my instance isn’t run by an idiot.
dot ml is the only mainstream on to implement it afaik.
There was a time (before the api exodus) where the devs were planning on making the filter compulsory for all instances, you can guess how that went.
That seems ridiculous.
