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.
Oof, it took it right out of the middle of your word, that’s pretty bad
Edit: Hahahaha what the fuck
it’s the S[strong swear word for vagina/misogynist slur if american]horpe problem, named after a town in england that got caught up in filters on the early internet
Yeah, this is kind of hilarious. Fark.com was famous for its word filter but that one was used for a gag and it was a still little bit more robust than this one. Looking forward to the weird Bowlderizations we come up with in the meantime.
