    You can swear on the internet. Violence? Gore? No problem!

    A bad word? Son of a removed, we’re all going to die.

    Edit: Wtf, there is a swear filter? Fuck.

      What pearl clutching son of a bitch at lemmy.ml decided its users were too fragile to hear the word “bitch”? And here’s the real question, can you read ot or does it censor mine? Because if you can read it then what’s the point of censoring your own users?

      Edit: yeah Kbin lets you say it.

        Nobody can read it, check the source of your comment. The word gets immediately replaced when you post. I’d like to know what words are forbidden, is there a list somewhere?

        Just to test how the filter behaves: Bi.tch.

          Nobody can read it, check the source of your comment.

          Correction: No one browsing through your specific server can read it. The rest of us see it just fine.

          From where I’m sitting, it seems like the filter is applied (a) when a lemmy.ml user makes a post (it strips it from the source and says removed for everyone) and (b) when lemmy.ml federates another instance’s comment over (source instance and any other non-censored federated instance has the word intact, ONLY you guys don’t see it).

          Come see!
