Whats the point of writing prn, f@ck, sht or anything like that instead of the actual words? You can still read them, its not like they are gone if you replace a letter or two.
On Lemmy, there’s no good reason. But they may be carrying over habits from other sites where there is harsh censorship of non-advertiser-friendly language

Good to know which instance to avoid!

Fun fact 1: if you do get banned or have your comments removed you’ll only know if you check the modlogs. And likely only if you check the modlogs of the instance that took action against you as the modlogs don’t fully sync between each other.
Fun fact 2: you have been in the past, here’s a link to the mod actions against you on .ml
Fun fact 3: and so have I, I only just recently finished a 2 week ban over here on .ml for calling that kind of stuff out on here.
Edit: That didn’t take long @[email protected] looks like you got banned for your comment.
Sounds shit, the admins must be right bitches

Let’s just get this out of the way…
Shit piss fuck cunt cocksucker motherfucker tits. And sometimes fart turd twat bitch.
Whatever is censored is being filtered by your instance.
I’m on an aussie instance, it just called you a fucken lightweight.
No censorship here. Could’ve guess with the instance’s name but still good to know! Thanks :)

I fucking love the fact that im instance admin

Okay I’m going to eat the onion. What are words 5 and the last one?
C o c k s u c k e r is word 5. T i t s is the last one on that sentence. B i t c h is the last word of the post.
Lemmy.ml sucks. I really need to move on.
My video was posted 12 years ago and yours was only posted 9 years ago. Check mate, atheists.
The video was actually recorded in the 1970s though. Checkmate theists?
Wait, so now I need to eat fish on Fridays? But I hate fish…
That’s ok…you can have beaver instead if you like. Take that however you wish…

I fucked your mom
I haven’t heard that song in ages
My mind auto harmonized with this comment
They played it in their most recent tour. Great setlist
That’s awesome. I had it on a compilation record from fat wreck called, “Short Music for Short People” had like 100+ songs and the rule was they had to be 30 seconds or less. Had some bangers, that one included.
Comes from the social media platforms that auto remove stories that contain certain words. Tiktok, Instagram, etc.
Cool, all the platforms I don’t use anyway.
Think I just don’t like places that are squeaky clean.
TikTok and Instagram are squeaky clean?

I’m on lemmy.world and there is no fucking swear filter.
deleted by creator
I think for posters on .ml, the words are actually removed and not just hidden from them. So that’s why you see it from other instances on their posts too.
Im pretry fucking offensive and dont get things deleted so idk.

A filter? Let me test it right now…
Fuck.
Unless this is a shadowban type filter, it seems to not be there…
Fun fact: you won’t get told when your stuff is removed or if you get banned. You have to check the modlogs.
This is Lemmy wide.
And looks like it’s still up as of 2 hours after you posted
Edit: Spelling
Edit 2: Spleling
Interesting, I didn’t even know there is a modlog.
deleted by creator
Theirs didn’t, yours did
I think it’s not a swear filter, but more like a ‘potentially discriminatory terms’ filter.
I see. I don’t mind filters that remove racist or homo/transintolerant slurs, that’s keeping a community safer and inclusive rather than enforcement of politeness.
What’s a female dog called?
A good girl.
Tbh that one drives me nuts, on some sites I can’t even say “Yeah I was bitching about Bad Idea’s availability to my shop’s owner and he said he didn’t want to carry their products because the guys running it are cunts.” (Curious to see what happens to this comment lmao)
Like dude, I’m the one I said was bitching about the thing, don’t fucking censor my colloquialisms, I wasn’t even trying to insult me!
Let’s test that one…
removed.
Edit::What do you know, it was actually filtered.
Wow I didn’t know that. Good thing I switched to a different instance (although it was mostly due to poor performance on lemmy.ml at the time).
I’ve seen that for words that are considered to be ‘triggers’, as if saying ‘r@pe’ is somehow different at all than just using the normal vowel.
That behavior drives me up the fucking wall, because by munging the word they make it less likely to be caught by user-invoked blocklists. Meaning they’re forcing people to be triggered after taking steps to avoid such.
Don’t fucking do that shit.
for the blocklist or whatever: rape
A lot of it comes from Tiktok culture. YouTube has started doing it too.
Videos that say “kill”, “rape”, “died”, etc are all deprioritized by the algorithm if not demonetized entirely.
People have been editing subtitles to avoid these words, and the behavior spread.
That makes sense.
I suspect it’s largely become a habit from people being on platforms that have automatic blocked word filters.
I have been watching Rick and Morty lately and every now and then I have to change the site to find a version of the episode I’m watching where swear words aren’t censored. Like, it’s a show made for adults full of violent and sexual themes, so I think that most viewers have heard the word “fuck” before. I hate it so much when people censor “bad words”, even though nothing prevents them from saying them.
There’s a bar in my area that has the TouchTunes jukebox set up to be censored. I’m an adult at a fucking bar and I can’t listen to something with a swear word, ha ha.
One time I was at a MicroCenter (kind of like Best buy) and Nine Inch Nails’ “Closer” came on the store music. I was like who the fuck plays a radio edit of this song what’s the point?
It was not a radio edit. We all heard “wanna fuck you like an animal” in all its original glory. A+ would buy wireless keyboard from there again.
God I worked at a bar that played NWA but with the naughty words bleeped out. It’s a fucking bar! First of many problems with that place.
One show where removing the censor was a detriment: Metalocalypse. They used a guitar sound on our first few seasons, and replacing that with the actual a wear words was just… less funny? I’ve never felt that way about a show before, or since.
cause i’m f@cking polite you a$$hole!
deleted by creator
[REDACTED] yeah!
Tbh I agree, but not like that. Self-censorship is useful in the sense of a larger vocabulary or unique or silly insults, or slang/code like Jive, but to use a word and still censor that word is preposterous. Just use a differen’t word you turkey! Don’t just say “d!ck” for “dick,” say “weiner,” it’s more funny anyway.
One possible reason is that some words on controversial subjects can attract mobs of posters with an agenda. They search for keywords to find threads to flood with their arguments.
So posters would get in the habit of saying something like “I love p1n3apple on p*zza” to avoid the wrath of pizza purists (made-up example, but substitute with anything more controversial).
This was a big problem during the 2016 election on reddit. There were armies of idiots who searched for comments containing ‘Trump’ and would brigade the shit out of it. But if you changed the ‘p’ to a ‘р’ (the Cyclic character) or changed the ‘u’ to a ‘ս’ (the Armenian character) miraculously you wouldn’t be brigaded.
Habit. If I name my folder “Pron,” then nobody who sees my desktop will know what’s in it.
Because instances have language filters. On lemmy.ml you can’t say “female dog”, it shows as “removed”

I have noticed that my phone will autocorrect/misrecognize some swears. Fuck is often duck.
At least on android, i find you can enable offensive words in keyboard settings to fix this
I am not going to login to see it, but I appreciate your effort. 😁
Didnt realise you had to login to see nsfw models. Thats the model in question:

Bitch
You are fined one credit for a violation of the Verbal Morality Statute.
Thanks a lot, you shitbrained, fart faced, ball breaking, duck fucking pain in the ass.
You lewd, crude bag of pre-chewed food dude.
Generally I don’t care about words like bitch, fuck, shit, but there are certain servers and communities where cusses or other words are used harmfully towards groups that the community or server is inteded to be a supportive place for, and when they come up in discussion, even just as examples as what was said to them are rightfully censored or have a trigger warning placed in front.
Community mods and server operators can get overboard with this but they get that privilege because they do the work to moderate it anyway.
To answer your question. They don’t like that stuff.
EDIT Having instances censor stuff for you is bad. Users censor themselves is fine.
