How do we do that?

Example: https://lemmy.world/u/Nigga

This shouldn't be possible to create in the first place to begin with, and it shouldn't be possible to edit the "pretty name" to something like that.

Stupid question possibly. Do we allow people who are black say nigga on here since they say it in public and no one questions them?

It's an offensive word to a large group of people. As an immigrant, I don't see how who says it changes the fact that it's offensive. 🤷‍♂️

Agreed.
