Iv seen posts with people substituting rape with r@pe. Other than bypassing filters I can’t see a reason to censor just 1 letter that doesn’t actually censor the word? I see if you fully censor the word, but even still context completely ruins the censorship.

    That’s what I would think but how do you tiptoe in context of really intense issues like suicide, rape, abuse? If you reference it I feel like it would trigger any bad emotions just on the topic not the specific word

      If tiktok has banned those words, then maybe tiktok is not the right forum for the topic?

        I think that’s what is happening. It’s to prevent the algorithms from hiding away their post due to controversial topics.

          There’s no way any modern word filter doesn’t have a common symbol substitution list
