This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Lemmy has certain words that are hard-censored. Like hard-coded into the actual code base. I think both the r and f slurs are among them.
It's the instance, not Lemmy in general.

For anyone that doesn't want to read through a thread on Lemmy's GitHub, the conclusion there is that three years ago, the instance slur filter was made opt-in and controlled via a config file, rather than hard coded.
Yeah I think someone must have shown me the earlier part of that thread at some point but I hadn't seen the later part where it eventually did get made configurable.
Bitch, let's see
Edit: well, this isn't one of them
