So, not sure if I am completely off base here, but I had this odd thing happen today where I couldn’t post an URL because whenever I did, part of it would be replaced with the text removed. You can see what I am talking about in the screenshot, and I am linking my comment below. Another commenter replied saying it was likely something related to a slur filter in my instance, so I am coming here for help to understand the issue. Sorry if this is completely wrong, I am not very well versed in the workings of the fediverse and different instance implementations. Here’s the comment:

    Censorship is dumb as fuck and lazy. The sites that do this are as fucking stupid as the religious pearl clutchers out there getting mad when we say “God damn it” or “fucking Christ”. Grow up you dipshit control freaks.

      I’m fine with censoring spam personally (which was what the filter was originally doing, per lemmyworld admins).

      I’m also fine with using ublock to censor ads fwiw.
