The Chapo.Chat moderators have already stated that they’re planning on removing the hard-coded slur filter from their instance of Lemmy; it’s the reason you’re not able to say the full text of ACAB. It’s just a bad idea to have something like this hard-coded in, leftist instances are created by fostering a good culture and not by babying the people who run these servers and if we want Lemmy to grow as an actual federated alternative to Reddit then it’s worth bringing up how bad this policy is by the original developers.

I don’t understand why that word is even on the list of slurs. Is it offensive to people who were born out of wedlock?

Maybe the devs just feel really strongly about R+L=J.

Beats the hell out of me, ten bucks says they might have just gotten a list of slurs from online and used that as a base and never really thought about it because this is the first major instance as far as I can tell.
