Getting 'no slurs' error on post (lemmy.ml)

submitted 4 years ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Hi, I am setting up a danish site. The word 'sl*t' means 'to complete' in danish. Whenever we make a post with that word, we get an error saying "no slurs". And the post is not accepted.

It does not help that we have enabled NSFW in community and on the post.

Please help. Thank you :)

That modlog is very interesting. The censorship is transparent just as it should be.

TBH I strongly disagree with your approach to freedom of speech. But you must be doing something right that Voat did wrong.

freedom of speech

It's not critiques of a government we remove, it's hateful language, misinformation, trolling, and other such things. None of that is "freedom of speech", it's filth that has no place on Lemmy. The post you brought up, was one where someone was literally saying the virus wasn't real, taking that post down wasn't 'censorship', it was janitorially removing misinformation. If you have a problem with this, Lemmy might not be for you.
