    Why am I seeing so many comments with the word removed? Is there some filter in this instance tagging very specific words?

      Yeah it’s the .ml instance filtering certain words that can be used as slurs such as b_tch and ret_rd.

      Your instance is heavily censored, both in terms of that filter, and also your instance admins who are very, very ban-happy towards people who don’t share the same views they do. I recommend switching to a less controlling instance if that sounds like a problem to you.
