It's not just the >!faggots!< voting against her, it's the >!dykes and the trannies!< too, and I assume several boring straights.
Hey, I'm interesting
Ok what is going on with the “removed” thing?? Is there some kind of instance-wide filter on words? I’ve seen this before.
Is it a blahaj thing? I’m so out of the loop on this lol
edit: actually sounds like in might be a Lemmy.world thing.
Some servers replace expletives with “removed” or similar. I think it’s silly. YMMV.
I’m on Blahaj and can see the slurs fine, is it maybe something from your instance or client?
I see it censored too. I didn’t think Lemmy.world did that. Kind of disappointed.
Stock lemmy censors some words. Most instances patch this behavior out.
Which removed thing?
I think that might be because of your client, what are you using?
Boost. I don't think it is, I know some instances replace certain words by 'removed'. What did you type? Can use letters to replace some letters so it doesn't get censored again
Voyager here (and on desktop, still seeing "removed"). I wonder if it's an instance thing on our end
Instance.
It's the word in the title that has asterisks in it in the title.
Out of curiosity, in your original comment, was it the uncensored word?
Yes
That spoiler syntax doesn't work on most lemmy clients, unfortunately
Is there a more universal syntax?
There's a "proper" syntax for it, but iirc some apps only respect their own syntax and will ignore the official one or ones from other apps.
The official syntax creates a section with a little arrow to fold/unfold, rather than the traditional clickable black bar. It's this:
and it shows up like this (assuming your app supports it):
