Lemmy.world censors only “removed” and the N word. Lemmy.ml censors “bitch” and various slurs. I believe their users can still see comments with these words in (?), though the censored words are removed if they post them themselves
Am I missing something? I have absolutely no idea what you guys are talking about.
Is there a slur somewhere in this post or the comment section? And TIL that Lemmy communities can censor words. I’m from blahaj.zone btw
Lemmy instances are able to censor words; it can’t be set per community. When viewing a comment from an instance that censors some word, that word will be replaced with “removed”. This applies to both comments sent by users of that instance, and comments sent by external users.
Blahaj doesn’t censor any slurs
Only federates up-votes and doesn't censor slurs, I find that funnier than I should
