It’s not a bug. It’s a feature.
There’s a fine line between ‘bug’ and ‘oversight’ and just about every time people are using ‘bug’ to not look incompetent.
Which is funny, because every decision over at reddit has demonstrated they’re fucking incompetent.
If you want to be pedantic about it, every bug is an oversight
Slur? The article seems to say it’s just the word “fuck”
Are people still shocked by stupid shit like profanity? I was expecting racial slurs or something actually bad…
The word in question is not “fuck”. It’s “faggоt”.
[And before someone complains: the above is an instance of metalinguistic usage of a word. It’s morally OK as you’re using the word to refer to itself, instead of using the word to convey any discourse that would target a marginalised group.]
Oooohhhhhhhhh. I completely forgot about that “f-word” and appreciate you not beating around the bush like the article did.
It’s a US based company. “US” is short for Ultrareligious States.
Ahh yes where in some states, rapeing little girls and marrying them off, so the child whose abortion is considered criminal, can grow up with a mom and dad, is endorsed by the “devout Christians”
Or
Un-Satan
the f slur is different from the f word
figuresfigasWow, I can’t believe I almost slurred a hard R there!
It’s not the same thing, but my immediate thought was Something Awful’s load bearing slur which broke logins when removed.
Story time?
Clarify?
Yeah what
Lol I saw that yesterday on a google search and literally thought it must be some kind of custom lemmy instance that mocked the UI and URL, too funny
Is “fuck” really a slur? I didn’t think slur was the right word for swears.
Verge’s editorial standards may discourage printing out the f-word in question, but following the links shows it to be the f-word for homosexual, not the f-word for copulation.
Reddit can die.
Oh no. Somehow the code allows people to speak their minds uncensored.
This is a massive threat to democracy.
If all you want to say is slurs, maybe you don’t deserve it.
