I’m going to need someone from .world to reply with a few examples of censored words to be sure. Anything from ****** to ****.

Let's go!

Shit, fuck, ass, asshole, cunt, pussy, vagina, dick, cock, penis, prick, sex, screw, shag, bitch, bastard, bastich, damn, god, fag, faggot, motherfucker, unclefucker, horsefucker, suicide, kill yourself, retard, retarded, nigga, nigger, Margaret Thatcher.

Let me know if I missed a spot.

Edit: Took a while to take effect but now we can see that they remove the long form of fag and "hard r".

Furthermore the same words got censored on my comments from lemmy.world AND sh.itjust.works, so my guess is that the filtering comes actually from lemmy.ml. Other instances may have a different list.

Isn't science fun?

Wait... account switch didn't work. Is this my .world account?

Edit: Yes it is! Aw shit, here we go again...

Shit, fuck, ass, asshole, cunt, pussy, vagina, dick, cock, penis, prick, sex, screw, shag, bitch, bastard, bastich, damn, god, fag, removed, motherfucker, unclefucker, horsefucker, suicide, kill yourself, retard, retarded, nigga, removed, Margaret Thatcher.

The r-tard one is a notable example.
