I’m not hating on this by the way, in fact I think it’s kinda funny!

      Are there any instances that you know of that disable the censorship? I already got my fill of cybernannies on Reddit.

      Edit: My alt on sh.itjust.works can see the censored words, and it defederates with much fewer instances than lemmy.ml. Seems like migrating over there is the best choice.

      Edit 2: I think I’ve finally figured it out based on what my sh.itjust.works account shows:

      1. If you’re on a censored instance, all words will be blocked no matter what
      2. If you’re on a non-censored instance looking at a comment from a censored instance, that comment will still show up as removed
      3. If you’re on a non-censored instance looking at a comment from a non-censored instance, the comment won’t be censored

      When I’m on my sh.itjust.works profile, the comment by @Lazerbeams2@ttrpg.network isn’t censored, but mine still is. So, the censorship gets you both coming and going - no censored words can make it into a censored instance, and no censored words can make it out either.

      I’ve just edited all of my scripts to point to my sh.itjust.works profile instead of lemmy.ml. Wish there was a way to migrate comments and posts over, but no biggie.

      Has anyone made a multi-Lemmy yet? Where all of your posts and comments from all of your profiles can show up in one place?

      (also, what’s the formatting for double-spacing after a list?)

      Lemmy has hard coded censorship

      I’ve noticed that a few of my comments wouldn’t actually post. The word for when you commit Sudoku (suicide) seems to be on the no-no list. I also wanted to comment about a weapon known by a two letter designation (AK) and that wasn’t allowed either.

      Edit: seems like it might be some instances only.

          Looks like I can say bitch just fine. Is it my instance? Or maybe because I’m on Liftoff and not Jerboa?

            It may be your instance - your comment shows as “Looks like I can say removed just fine” to me. I may be switching to lemmy.ee it seems.

            Edit: turns out my alt on sh.itjust.works can see them fine, so I’m migrating my account over there.

              Do me a favor and reply with the B-word. Maybe I can see it because it’s my own post.
