It recently came to my attention that .world may be using the censor function of the Lemmy software.

Is this a recent development? Regardless, I feel that it’s counterproductive and unhelpful.

    We dont censor words, thats just a way that lemmy works. On local its behaviour is not to censor it, rather block it. To not block federation, lemmy just censors it instead of ignoring/blocking the comment or post.
