This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

"Bitch", I assume. Fits the context, and I think it's on lemmy.ml's forbidden word list.

What a bitch-ass move.

I’m not sure whether I’m more mad about the fact that they censor the word “bitch” or that they didn’t use [redacted] as the replacement..

I might hang out at the SCP wiki a bit too much

Lemmy has certain words that are hard-censored. Like hard-coded into the actual code base. I think both the r and f slurs are among them.

It's the instance, not Lemmy in general.

For anyone that doesn't want to read through a thread on Lemmy's GitHub, the conclusion there is that three years ago, the instance slur filter was made opt-in and controlled via a config file, rather than hard coded.

Yeah I think someone must have shown me the earlier part of that thread at some point but I hadn't seen the later part where it eventually did get made configurable.

Bitch, let's see

Edit: well, this isn't one of them
