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?

      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.

          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.
