I gather some server is for some arcane reason censoring naughty words to protect our delicate sensibilities. Is it on my end, on lemmy.ml? Is it the server people are posting from? Is it something happening in the federation? Is it the Romulans?

      It’s a bit unintuitive what happens if I say “bitch” from another instance 🤔

        You don’t have to be a tankie to censor things. We can’t have people spreading nazi propaganda or saying racial slurs. You wanna become another platform like Voat?

      I hope they start cracking down on the slurs narcissist and cult. It’s tricky because those two are legitimate words inside the community, but people have lately taken to using them as pejoratives.
