I believe the commenter is referring to a spelling of "snickering" that replaces the 'ck' with 'gg'. I don't have any sources to cite, but vaguely recall seeing this spelling years ago.

Did you reply to the wrong comment?

I intended to respond to your comment, but certainly may have misunderstood the comment as well. What I meant was only that I thought Foggy was suggesting the potential racist sounding version of "snickering" that replaces the ck with gg, rather than suggesting that sremoveding sounds potentially racist.

I wasn't familiar with the word sremoveding before, but find the etymology fascinating and appreciate getting to learn about it.

I didn't discover that lemmy.world has a Scunthorpe Problem auto-censor editing your comments for you (and mine, but only if you're reading them on lemmy.world) so I'm actually not sure if you're making a joke or are unaware of what's happening!
