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.

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.

Interesting, I didn’t even know there is a modlog.

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.
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).
