[META maybe] Is the swear filter on lemmy.ml gone ?

As in do they still censor word like fuck as removed and delete your comment ? Haven't seen anything about it but just saw some .ml folks swearing.

Who the fuck knows? I don't really give a shit, personally...

(Did you see them?)
- Yes yes i do
The filter is setup for filtering slurs, not swear words more broadly. So "fuck" and "shit" are no problem, but "b*tch", "r*tard", and similar are censored.
- When i used to be there they did censor or delete those posts
Swear filtering on Lemmy.ml? That’s fuckin funny
This is a test, you cunt. Sorry about the slur, but the NATO reporting name for the Mig-15 fighter was Fagot. I am unsure whether the slur is spelled with two Gs, though - It's not like it's a word I've needed to use a lot.
- You are not on lemmy.ml so you never were censored to begin with.
  
  As a Lemmy.ml user, I believe the censoring happens for every comment I view through that instance.
Well someone's gonna have to say it, you know for science
- Which one ?
  
  n
  
  edit: Yk I changed my mind, I think the filters mostly about racist slurs so any of the plethora should work
  
  A term equating to a Female dog
ho, hoe, ho

I called clarence thomas a removed. it got filtered.
- To be fair, the appropriate thing for him would be to be removed.
