Is anyone else seeing swear words censored in comments?

yimby@lemmy.ml to Fediverse@lemmy.world – 29 points –

I'll be scrolling through lemmy world and occasionally I'll see comments where a word in them has been replaced with removed. Usually from context it's early a swear word, normal stuff not slurs.

Is this a lemmy.world censorship thing? A lemmy wide thing? I doubt it has anything to do with my app, unless Jerboa is censoring specific words.

Anyone else experiencing this?

They don’t want you to talk about female dogs.

Huh 🤔

A female dog is called a bitch. That's where the profanity comes from, you say that someone is like a female dog and lemmy.ml get real upset.
