Why the self censoring? Is fuck a "worse" word than shit? Do you censor yourself when you talk verbally?

Just seems funny that on a post about saying whatever the fuck you want online, you say "Ive seen the word fuck before" without actually saying the fucking word.

Much love ❤️

I'm not censoring myself. I'm saying I've seen multiple memes that had fuck written as f*uck with the asterisk and I'm criticising that... and saying that Lemmy isn't immune to this bullshit.

Ah right, sorry about the misunderstanding there mate. I agree wholeheartedly with you. I find it so strange, especially when you consider - f*ck has to be the word fuck. It can not be anything else, making the self-censoring effectively pointless.

Yeah. It's a pet peeve of mine. Either write it out in full or don't bother. Censoring yourself like this is dumb as ~~heck~~ hell.

I sh*t you not, I've seen people self-censor the word hell.
