  You’ve gone too far with the unnecessary self censorship. I have no idea what name you are trying to say.

    Don’t worry friend, I got you. I looked it up and I reckon he is referring to “Scunthorpe”.

        I see. I wasn’t aware of the Scυnthorpe problem. Thanks for the link.

        I see that lemmy uses a slur_regex to replace slurs with removed: github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/…/slurs.rs#L5

        I don’t know what lemmy.ml’s regex is, but I know that cυnts aren’t appreciated there, lol.
