      Why is there a slur filter, are you guys that lazy that you can't just set it up to notify a mod so it just goes scorched earth? This filter seems really overreaching. How is that even a slur?

      Mad annoying to read comments that are being filtered in this space we don't need a filter and we can just report people posting actual slurs maliciously.

          incredibly cringe.

          tfw every website on earth realized word filters were incredibly stupid like 10 years ago but we have to pretend they are good because the original lemmy dev is a weirdo and assumes everyone wants to say the nword (that argument is not good IDK why you would copy it)

          The fuck? Who wants to say the n word? Have I ever used a slur here? Fuck off

          Any kind of word filter is shitty and is a big reason your site is dying, especially when it's been catching such horrific words like "secre*ary", in addition to you treating valid criticism with general dickishness

          Very cool, glad you spent time to make a site that can die a week later

            Lmao, if the site dies it's not gonna be because a few words can't be said, it's so unintrusive to the regular activity that this is literally the first time I've even noticed there's a filter

    I guess the filter makes it so no one has to spend time telling the poster they’re wrong. They probably get the message when their post is removed

    Diego removedundez is probably still filtered, too...

    basically, this is a lemmy-side thing that is a mixed bag.
