    It’s even full of removeds

    It would seem your instance likes the censor feature

        Wow, that’s the first time I’ve seen the function on .world. Is it new with the update or have I just never run into a usage case before, I wonder?

          I don’t know, but I can test it again. A faggot is a bundle of sticks or twigs bound together as fuel. If it says “removed” in that last sentence, .world is censoring what you’re seeing. This sort of thing is why I left .world. I’m no fan of slurs, but preemptively removing words with no human input doesn’t sit well with me. Remove the comment and ban the user if the context makes it necessary, but don’t censor via bot.
