Ableist slurs today, huh?
Interesting. I could guess that "removed" might be ableist or sexist, but the fact that you were able to pick correctly and confidently suggests it's not censored for you. Is this specific to my client or instance? Tbh seeing "removed" (in italics) everywhere is one of the things that has annoyed me about using lemmy, and I'd turn it off if I knew how. Not that I'm in favor of slurs, I'd just like to be able to see what people are actually saying and judge them myself.
I think it is a lemmy.ml setting, as I see the same, even when using a browser.
After a bit of googling I was able to confirm that it is indeed instance-based.
