IGNORE: This is happening at lemmy.world, not here. See my screenshots showing the censorship which happens at lemmy.world end.

This is all very exciting to figure out.

Original post…

I’m going to post a bug report to Lemmy but it seems my comment body that contains about 6 instances of the f-word gets blocked from posting at all.

Post body I intended is below. Posts with the f-word in get blocked entirely.

Comments get the word censored. The filtering is fucking idiotic and over-zealous.

TLDR: WHY IS A UK SERVER BLOCKING MENTION OF A UK FOODSTUFF?

        OK this is weird.

        My comments as both users are showing immediately on both instances. YOU aren’t showing on Lemmy.world though. I was gonna see if your “fag” propogated but none of your comments have gone across.

        Comment counts here are at 29 (as of commenting)

        Comment counts on Lemmy.world are at 16 (as of commenting)

        There’s a TON of missing comments over there.

          Here’s two different posts—both hosted on .World—which don’t show up when I view the original .world instance.

          I had thought maybe .world half defederated (sending posts out but not letting them in) from kbin.social due perhaps to kbin.social’s slight spam problem at times.

            Is it a specifically lemmy.World thing do ya think?

            On further checking kbin posts don’t even seem to federate there so I can’t check.

              It is yeah. I’m the OG poster with a new account on Feddit.UK. Look at my original post and the censored words:

                I don’t know if perhaps there are downvotes that don’t federate to us, but on kbin votes are public and no one seems to have downvoted you.
