Is anyone else seeing swear words censored in comments? (lemmy.ml)

I'll be scrolling through lemmy world and occasionally I'll see comments where a word in them has been replaced with removed. Usually from context it's early a swear word, normal stuff not slurs.

Is this a lemmy.world censorship thing? A lemmy wide thing? I doubt it has anything to do with my app, unless Jerboa is censoring specific words.

Anyone else experiencing this?

I don't think there is a swear filter in settings, it looks to be a per instance option (looking a the source code it is).
