      Side subject, sorry for my aside: I’m starting to really get annoyed at the censorship on my instance.

            That is weird. Maybe it’s a federation issue, I’m not sure how it all works.

              What client are you using? Maybe that’s the issue?

                Boost for Lemmy. It’s an android app.

                  I’m also on boost, it shows fine for me. I don’t even see a setting to enable censoring an individual word in comments. Just posts.

        Looks uncensored to me on desktop.

        edit: Wait, was it edited at some point?

        You can export all your subscriptions pretty easily so you can sign up to a different instance and import everything over. Check Lemmy settings.

          I’m honestly curious what that porn fetish was that it was so bad to be censored. Anyone off-world able to enlighten me?

            It’s the short hand version of Transexual. Tran-ny is what got censored.

            That would be porn featuring people who were born as a boy or a girl by mistake, and who have since tried to put that right. Rocky Horror Picture Show has a “sweet” song with the word which is apparently problematic.

        How incredibly bizarre. Why is it even allowed to edit a post?

        It was probably the lemmy.ml word filter, not lemmy.world
