I’ll be scrolling through lemmy world and occasionally I’ll see comments where a word in them has been replaced with removed. Usually from context it’s early a swear word, normal stuff not slurs.
Is this a lemmy.world censorship thing? A lemmy wide thing? I doubt it has anything to do with my app, unless Jerboa is censoring specific words.
Anyone else experiencing this?
I don’t agree with lemmy.ml’s simpleminded word policing system at all (not least of which because it suffers from a variant of the Cunthorpe Problem), but I really do find terribly amusing the people who are OUTRAGED at their inability to use slurs and choose that as the reason to switch instances. I find it very telling.
Yes, we want to say removed. removed.
I’m sorry, did I say anything that suggested otherwise?
