So glad they censored fre*king. I almost had to read a minced oath.

I'm more concerned about the "barn out"

It's "barn", not "burn"

Thanks for sharing. I appreciate the decensoring effort. Hang in there.

They also censored the names of the pseudonyms on a public website.

I really do get why it's being called out, its silly and annoying.

8/10 of the top comments in my client are complaining about this, though.

It's easy for me to ignore and move on from the censored text, but its harder to ignore the comments when they are taking up so much space.

Again, I get why, and I understand that each commenter probably didn't see eachothers comments at the time of posting. And again, I get that this censoring is ridiculous.

I am not really offering a solution, and I'm not sure that people should stop calling it out but... theres got to be a better way? Maybe such posts should just be banned? Deleted by mods? If it is so frustrating for so many people.

It’s just engagement bait at this point
