    I’m really glad you so effectively censored the word b*ttom, I wouldn’t want my poor innocent eyes to be exposed to the top-right pixels in the letter o

        Please explain to us how the Threadiverse algorithms promote content that receives either more comments or more direction-agnostic voting activity, and how this isn’t just OP being lazy and not selecting an uncensored version of the meme that they found on a site which has either those factors or which does reduce the visibility of posts with taboo words in

          Attention seeking and validation seeking are baked into human personalities to varying degrees, and plenty of behavior predating social media (and even the internet) was motivated by those tendencies.

          I never claimed it was, I was just referring to the original intent with which the half censor was placed on the image.

      Just once, I would like to post a meme and people see the content not the needless censorship that the original OP used so that it doesn’t get flagged by heavy handed AI on other sites.

          I don’t see how my comment is defensive, but I get tired of reading the same response even when it’s a half decent meme. In this case the censorship is pretty marginal.

        Just once, I would like to view a meme and people haven’t censored the content.

        Also I don’t really give a shit about different sites. There is a reason I’m here and not there.
