Here you go OP. It’s actually ok to swear on the internet.

Here is a not weirdly censored and un-censored version:
I mean… could I have gone and found the original, maybe. Did it cross my mind, no I jumped straight to do it on my phone and make it look as natural as possible, but of course this was the harder option. 🤦♂️
I also like to reinvent wheels, it's basically a hobby at this point
I like to go the extra mile. I uncensor shit emphatically.
A censored "shit" in a post about Star Trek? "SHIT" in big Star Trek font.
"Cunt" in a post about the UK? Enjoy your "CUNT" dressed in a union jack.
The censored word is "cock"? Here's "COCK" in flesh tones with bulging purple veins on it.
Fucking lean into it.
"Harder". I mean, sure. It's all so low effort anyway. Why not call that harder.
I don't get at all this trend of badly censored words.
They try to be a rebel, but still wanna please facists algorithms. American puritanism BS. Fuck that.
One theory is that it's done intentionally to farm engagement from people pointing it out. Also I think most mainstream platforms heavily push down in the algorithm content that isn't sanitised. This is to make the platform more appealing to advertisers because the platform's userbase is the product.
As for why the words are partly censored instead of completely censored I'm not sure. I'd guess it's to game the algorithm while also making the word completely obvious.
Either way, if this is the behaviour that you engage in on a platform, that platform is terrible and you are an attention obsessed idiot.
It's to get by censorship algorithms on certain sites. The picture is copied as-is, so it stays even when not needed.
the only correct answer
The creators of Lemmy (who also run the Lemmy.ml instance) are huge fans of censorship and propaganda so they use automated swear word filtering to train their users into uncritically accepting censorship.
Yes, **** the fuck.
MY EYES! NOOOOO! MY INNOCENCE!!!!
I hate it. I downvote every censored post.
Unless you’re a part of .ml, apparently. They auto-censor that stuff for some reason.
They got more problems than censoring bad words tho…
Anything's possible when you make shit up
i can promise you fuck isn't censored on .ml
