I think they can’t stand the censorship of the word kinky, even though it was done that way because it would have been blocked on the original source. I suspect they’d rather be staring at no content than be reminded that other networks will hide or ban posts because they have suggestive themes.
Down votes really don’t mean s*** here and I hope that we can continue to have content in any form that it will come across. The platform is still starved for content so fuck all if I care that a word is censored in a screenshot from another fucking platform
4 months ago, I was using Google’s dictation for most of my responses. Turning it on and off in software was a decent PITA and I left it on for work purposes. I don’t really care if something is censored or not on Lemmy. I don’t, however, feel like I particularly owe it to people here to uncensor shit that dictation censors.
In this particular case, I dictated the whole response, but it fucked up the end of the line so bad, I had to go back and swype it back in, since the default is not to censor, the rewritten portion didn’t get censored.
I’ve changed over to Futo dictation now, it doesn’t have the option to censor so i’ve pretty much been uncensored for a couple months now with the downside being i need to watch my mouth in work chats. And to be fair, f*** isn’t meaningfully better than !!!FUCK!!! in a work chat from HR standards, so I was probably wrong all along not to turn it off and watch my language where it matters.
It’s amazing how much people don’t understand how voting works or what it is for.
Downvoting posts push them below better posts. If someone thinks they don’t do anything: change your default post sorting to controversial for a few days and see if you notice a difference.
In case your question is genuine, yes it matters that we don’t allow this place to be governed by the same arbitrary rules that walled gardens enforce. If you can’t see why, it is not my responsibility to explain it to you.
I will downvote every post I see with walled garden censorship.
What am I missing here?

You censored shit but not fucking, that’s interesting

This isn’t Reddit or another “garden”. Downvotes don’t mean shit here. Your crusade is futile. Get a few beers and just laugh at idiots.
In so far as internet points are concerned, sure. As a vote against allowing big tech censorship here? Absolutely counts.
How come? If I downvote you a million times, will that bankrupt Microsoft? Or how does it “absolutely counts”?
Lemmy is open sourced so the sorting algorithms are also open sourced. Downvotes on posts are part of the sorting, as one would expect.

And? We have here a “dozen” threads per week. Sorting-shmorting, but everyone will see all threads anyway.
What a nonsense take.
Are you a Big Mac or a Whopper kind of person?
