Jerboa is a native-android client for Lemmy, built using the native android framework, Jetpack Compose.

Warning: You can submit issues, but between Lemmy and lemmy-ui, I probably won't have too much time to work on them. Learn jetpack compose like I did if you want to help make this app better.

Why the [removed] do swears show up as [removed]? (lemmy.ml)

I'm not hating on this by the way, in fact I think it's kinda funny!

Pretty sure that's not it. People are saying removed as a joke. It's a filter for slurs, not swears.

Looks like I can say bitch just fine. Is it my instance? Or maybe because I'm on Liftoff and not Jerboa?

It may be your instance - your comment shows as "Looks like I can say removed just fine" to me. I may be switching to lemmy.ee it seems.

Edit: turns out my alt on sh.itjust.works can see them fine, so I'm migrating my account over there.

Do me a favor and reply with the B-word. Maybe I can see it because it's my own post.

Bitch

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I really do think it's your instance, but here we go: removed

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yep, your comment shows up as removed for me. Thanks.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I think I've finally figured it out based on what my sh.itjust.works account shows:

If you're on a censored instance, all words will be blocked no matter what
If you're on a non-censored instance looking at a comment from a censored instance, that comment will still show up as removed
If you're on a non-censored instance looking at a comment from a non-censored instance, the comment won't be censored

When I'm on my sh.itjust.works profile, the comment by @[email protected] isn't censored, but mine still is. So, the censorship gets you both coming and going - no censored words can make it into a censored instance, and no censored words can make it out either.

Thanks for solving the mystery! I find it odd how an instance like lemmy.ml would randomly censor certain swears, but beehaw.org doesn't seem to? Maybe I'm misreading some people's comments in here.

I'm on lemmy.world and things don't seem to be censored on this instance either if anyone is curious. I can say "bitch" all I want.

Lemmy is growing more irritating with shit like this.
