MODERATORS
Genuine question, is Lemmy.ml censored in some way?
Slurs are blocked, yes. That's the thing they have a problem with. Let your imagination answer why.
I know they had a word block list but I'm unsure if it's still around.
It’s still around but so rarely invoked most don’t even know about it. It’s basically a non issue, I’m not sure anyone suggesting it’s important for increasing the size of lemmy can be taken seriously, not least because it’s only on one instance.
Tell me @arin@lemmy.world what words do you need to use that the auto censor removes from your posts?
Whatever problems it has, it’s a simple and cheap means of providing some baseline of moderation which is hard for new platforms and something lemmy is struggling with.
Well then, I'll disregard the original comment. I don't mind that slurs are censored.
