Well you know what they say. the customer is just a whinny little bitch.
Just asking because I'm genuinely not aware
Why the censor on 'fuck' ? I'm used to not censoring my messages because we culturally swear freely here, but why censor on something like Lemmy ?
I just copied the title.
Probably just the title directly from the link
As the others already said, it's like that in the YouTube title, but funnily enough, this actually ties back into this story.
You see, there's three ways of going about content moderation:
- Basically don't do it and tell advertisers to go fuck themselves.
- Completely overdo it with shitty word filters.
- Actually have enough moderators to make sensible decisions.
Companies being companies, the third option is, of course, not an option.
And so, you've got eX-Twitter trying to do the first option.
While, for example, Google and TikTok are firmly on the second option.And that is why you cannot write "fuck" into the title of a YouTube video. Nor any other word that could in certain contexts be bad for advertisers.
Elon has achieved another breakthrough. He has created the first official anti-social platform.
And by "advertisers" he means "customers".
