Whats the point of writing prn, f@ck, sht or anything like that instead of the actual words? You can still read them, its not like they are gone if you replace a letter or two.

    My mistake, I meant .ml, accidentally conflated the two.

    I do come across a lot of removed while browsing on my .world account when the blahaj is being iffy, not sure what that is from.

    Fun fact: you won't get told when your stuff is removed or if you get banned. You have to check the modlogs.

    This is Lemmy wide.

    And looks like it's still up as of 2 hours after you posted

    Tbh that one drives me nuts, on some sites I can't even say "Yeah I was bitching about Bad Idea's availability to my shop's owner and he said he didn't want to carry their products because the guys running it are cunts." (Curious to see what happens to this comment lmao)

    Like dude, I'm the one I said was bitching about the thing, don't fucking censor my colloquialisms, I wasn't even trying to insult me!
