Not sure if this is the right place, but I’ve seen this for the 3rd removed now.
Literally couldn’t use the word in the title … got a red pop-up that said “slur”.
It’s the 3rd word (singular) in the famous newspaper from New York …
I’m confused, one instance can censor other one too?
I think it only affected ani.social users, so no. It was a local issue.
Time?

maybe it’s my instance?
… is your instance run by Melinoë?
Death to Chronos by the way
Must be, I can see it all. Nothing is censored except your reply.
Are you using an app or a browser? It looks like a browser to me and maybe there is an extension messing with it? Maybe somebody is pranking you? Just a thought.
Browser, lot of extensions but they aren’t to blame. Other users from my instance confirmed the same issue.
It sounds like there’s something up with your instance. The word is t i m e, and it shows up ok here.
Reminds me of when Minecraft Bedrock censored the word “flèche” from me, the French word for “arrow”, literally an item in the game x)
Gundam Evolution has been censoring the word “corn”
So you’ve seen Gundam Uni**** in the chat
Certain Pokémon games have filters preventing you from online trading Pokémon which have nicknames that include bad words. However, some Pokémon such as Cofagrigus have bad words in their names by default so you have to nickname those in order to trade them.
elder scroll online censored the word sperm, but “whisper” was how they called the private chat, so you’d see lot of people on the global chat writing “whisper me” which was shown as “whi*** *e”
That is hilarious!
I wonder if t-i-m-e is a slur in a different language, because it definitely ain’t in portuguese, english, spanish, italian or japanese

What is this from?
The gloriously awful Action 52 cartridge for the original Nintendo.
time?
scunthorpe
Your instance is ani.social and “ti-me” (ちめ) can mean bloodshot eyes or fatal error, and might be slang for a pejorative in Japanese or something that sounds close to an actual slur.
Still a stupid reason to censor the English word time on an English community, but that’s the best reason I can think for why it got zapped by a censor bot.
Okay that’s pretty ridiculous though.
But also kind of funny. They should pick a new common word to ban every day until it’s just remove remove remove.
Which is funny because there are multiple anime with “time” in their title. So I wonder how that’s going to look.
“Tis redacted for torture, princess”
I love that one. Season 2 was actually better than the first!.
They’re afraid because removed not only conquers all, it heals all wounds.

time?
removed?
yeah … that one.
thats so weird!!

Ok, might be my instance. Thanks for the feedback.
time
Because everyone knows to say it right you say, Morris Day and the motherfucking TIME.
Oh-we-oh-we-oh
No time to explain
time
should be okay now. i put a certain domain in the slur filter rather than the domain filter. everything should be ok now
What’s up with the NYT?
No it was telegram invite links
They have a lot fun games !dailygames@lemmy.zip
Is there a publicly available list of domains lemmy instances filter out? For transparency.
Here’s the list that your instance (lemmy.world) blocks.
Those are only blocked instances not any domains blocked.
I don’t know enough about how lemmy (or any fedi software come to that) differentiates between the two or even that it did to be honest - isn’t an instance tied to a domain?
Instances are other Fediverse software sites like Lemmy, PieFed, Mastodon, etc. The block list stops their content from appearing in your instances feed.
There are a separate list of blocks for any URL, so for example an instance could block anyone posting links to BBC.com.
Hey, I helped!
Why censor at all?
Some of us dont want slop, censoring slop is good actually, if you want slop there are plenty of other instances.
H*ly fk, does this sht really do something positive for you?
I guess you must have no idea what I said cause I censored it though. Ah well, too bad!
my bad g

stupid censurer is stupid
