Why the hell do you care enough to post that here? What difference is it to you if they type pr0n or porn? The ‘you’re not cussing enough’ crowd confuses the fuck out of me
I mean, you still “cussed”. Switching two letters around doesn’t change the meaning and the original word doesn’t hold any special powers.
I agree it’s not much to make a reply about.
I think the attitude stems from the view that using placeholder words for swear words is often associated with religious/puritanical attitudes since there’s not really a reason to do it so the user reacts as they would to puritanical people invading their community i.e. hostile.
I think that’s not as true today but that’s where the backlash comes from.
You know, God forbid somebody uses voice dictation which bleeps it out or has to switch between work chats and social media.
Fuck, Even if it is somebody puritanical quoting on something they’ve got 70 up votes and somebody else has to come in and removed at them because they might have sellf censored a word.
I think I’m just going to do the same rant every time someone plays that shit.
Since when is porn cursing? No one is chastising anyone for not cursing. You can talk like an adult here and use actual words. Mummy won’t shout at you.
Good grief. You can type porn, you know. Porn porn porn.
It’s a long standing joke, calm down. I’ve joking called porn pron many times.

Who put you in charge of what words people choose to use do you have some form of badge for this?
Why do you get to matter?
If you do it the former way, you’re supposed to use a zero as well: “Pr0n.”

(Gosh, I miss the internet of the olden days of the early 2000s. Simpler times back then 😁)
Yeah I am not good at it (porn, I mean…) Better at the other one (pron, I mean …)
Maybe she didn’t want to though.
Fuck! Porn! But maybe Lemmy.world could ban me… /s
