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

1. If you’re on a censored instance, all words will be blocked no matter what
2. If you’re on a non-censored instance looking at a comment from a censored instance, that comment will still show up as removed
3. 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.

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

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.

I tried a few days ago, but every kbin instance I went to requires an email to sign up. Maybe I’ll try again with a throwaway email.

Are there any instances that you know of that disable the censorship? I already got my fill of cybernannies on Reddit.

Edit: My alt on sh.itjust.works can see the censored words, and it defederates with much fewer instances than lemmy.ml. Seems like migrating over there is the best choice.

I’ve just edited all of my scripts to point to my sh.itjust.works profile instead of lemmy.ml. Wish there was a way to migrate comments and posts over, but no biggie.

Has anyone made a multi-Lemmy yet? Where all of your posts and comments from all of your profiles can show up in one place?

(also, what’s the formatting for double-spacing after a list?)

I just use “top day” for relatively new content, then when that’s done I switch to New

I feel exactly the same way. It’s incredibly refreshing, and really brings into perspective how far reddit has fallen in the past few years.

Commenting to hear the answer to this as well. I spent about ten minutes last night going back and forth between 16pt and 12pt, utterly confused, before settling unsatisfactorily on 15pt.

I’m logged in on my phone’s browser, so when I find a community I want to sub to, I just copy paste the link into my browser and do it that way. It’s cumbersome, but it works until the feature gets added.
