@Senokir In general they are, at the very least, hostile to folks who do so. It’s a main reason I use #Lotide (via narwhal.city) rather than #Lemmy (although there are newer #Lemmy instances out there now that I’m considering joining eventually)
It is my understanding that that has been the case for a long time, yes. But I also hope that with the large influx of new users that we will overshadow any bad actors attempting to spread misinformation.
There were words like “sl**” that where normal words in Danish or something like that, which caused issues with multi language stuff, that’s why it was removed.
@gary_host_laptop In any case, I’m not salty about it, because it’s now configurable (which it always should have been IMHO), just using it as an example to point out the bias and pro-censorship leanings of those running the #Lemmy software project, who I believe are also running lemmy.ml unless something changed recently
@Senokir @Solaris1789 I hope they don’t ban you
If this community doesn’t welcome people who actively fight against misinformation then I am more than happy to be banned.

@Senokir @realcaseyrollins Yeah we should nuke Beijing.
@Mark @Senokir Heck no
?
Did anyone here suggest that we do such a thing?
Don’t bother posting if you have nothing interesting to contribute.
If this was reddit i’d be concerned but there isnt any censorship here i know of
@Solaris1789 Didn’t the #Lemmy software literally use to have a hardcoded blocklist of words it wouldn’t let you use?
By words you mean slurs?
@raresbears Yeah, although there were some other words that were banned as well IIRC

“Bias” is such a negatively loaded word. Use Anti-Nazi-bias instead.
@m532 lollll 😂😂😂
