I f**king love how censoring curse words has become the new c*rsing for the internet!
Used to be that cursing was a way to show your disdain for having restrictions placed on your freedom of expression. Now cursing without censorship is considered “polite internet speech” and adding an * is offensive and uncouth. Your right to express yourself how you choose be d*mned!
The irony is too good!
Should have censored “censored”.
Good. Keep it up.
A fun consequence is the effect that any removed or censored words are effectively vulgar and sexual.
You f*** in the ****
You fill in the gaps
My problem isn’t if you post OC that you censored, my problem is when people are posting another’s OC that didn’t censor any cuss words.
Like if you’re reposting a 4-panel comic here that explicitly had cuss words and then you censored it. FUCK THAT.
Same applies to reposting a tweet or whatever.
Tl;Dr If you’re posting something that already has uncensored cuss words in it, stop being a bitch and censoring shit.
Oops
I’m gonna be honest I find it hilarious how mad people get about it. I might start censoring for fun lmao
Looking over these comments, you’d be a fool not to lol
Throw in some speelling errors and watch people go f**king insane.
*spealing
*sum
You fucking moron they misspelled airrors not some
It is annoying though. Fuck.
H@nd h0lding.
WHY IS THE TITLE CENSORED!? THIS IS THE INTERNET - YOU CAN SAY RULE , LOSER!
You do realize you can say rule, right? We’re all adults here, stop censoring yourself. Sigh… The sterilization of the internet continues. Gotta make everything family friendly for the ad pushers
Unironically true
This is America’s fault
Sure it’s meant the mean “rule”? I thought it’s “role” or “ryle” or something mundane but talking about rules on lemmy???
The one rule of the original 195 subreddit was to post before you left.
I get that people don’t censor “rule” in this vulgar age but please censor (sub)r*ddit! Don’t give the kids stupid ideas!
I never really understood why people self censor their comments at all. I can’t think of any major social media site that gives a shit. The YouTube algorithm cares, but that’s just for the videos themselves.
I don’t use tik tok so I might be wrong but I think that platform is the main driver of it. My wife uses it and says they have to censor even non-swears like “kill” or “sex” or their video/comment could be removed.
Fuck everything about that.
It’s very common on most social media for comments with swears to get shadow removed. Personally I often resort to non-ASCII lookalike characters instead, because fսсk those sһіttу censorship rules. But it’s also a lot easier to just self-censor.

Interesting, got a link?
I regularly use this page.
Unfortunately it looks like the font lemmy-ui uses really fucked up the ‘h’ lookalike:
on my phone when I wrote that comment last night I thought I could just about see the difference between the lookalike ‘u’ and a real ‘u’ because it wasn’t the same height as the (real) ‘c’ next to it. But I may have been imagining that.
They’re called Homoglyphs.
Whoa that slur will get you shadow banned from some social media sites
If you do this, I will never not make fun of you.
Yea I fuck**g hate it
Speaking of which, I meant to post more things to c/uncensor to get it some more content.
At this point why not just have an uncensoring bot that corrects this kind of stuff
I genuinely would like that. I do not want to use a web controlled by daft pro-advertiser policies or pearl-clutching daftness.
True, the selfcensorship on lemmy is fucking disg*sting at this point!
