I think thats the whole internet nowdays, unless you decide to exclusivelly consume cat content (and even then theres gonna be a way to jam in extremist political views by some nutter somehow).

Although i have to admit that the ones here are of a diferent breed than most, mainly tankies and people on that side of the compass (and yes they are very annoying about it).

One upside to lemmy is that ,at least up untill now, the mods and admins are very neutral and i rarelly see deleted comments (or maybe they are hidden... i dunno) and that theres genuine free speech in here, i mean if you whant you can look at my comment history, i get downvoted to oblivion most of the time but my comments are still up and not censored.

Although there is this weird thing on other instances (im in sh.itjust.works and they dont do this i know i tryied it) that delete words on peoples comments and posts, mainly slurs and politically incorrect words. Really, i seen that some months before, dont know if it still like that now with the world users, but if you type something like fa***t in .world you will get "deleted" in that word specifically irc

Do I understand it correct that the comment would stay but the word would get censored?

Yes, try it if you whant, my instance does allow that type of words.

Dont know about yours though.

You can always delete it after the fact if it makes you uncomfortable having it in your comment history

I don't know how to feel about it, gives me some "spez editing the database to change comments" vibes.

I guess I would feel better to just get notified that my comment got removed.

Or is it just a displaying option based on the instance you logged in with and it gets filtered on the display side and a different instance user would still see the original?
