The SQL way
https://lemmyverse.link/lemmy.ca/post/40761824, thank you to @shadow@lemmy.ca! Note this does not work with regex patterns.
The slur filter way
(.*(\n)*Hi.*[nN]icole.*[fF]ediverse [cC]hick(.|\n)*)
Is what we are using on dbzer0 right now. It previews all of nicole’s messages as just “removed”.
Why such hacky fixes? Well truth is, due to lemmy’s subpar filtering we really can’t do much about this currently. At most these just repel from the potential harm of nicole’s messages.
@db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com has opened these two issues:
Are you trying to keep me and my girlfriend apart?
Fuck you, she’s mine. In fact, i snuck in to these solutions an exception for my account. So i can keep her DMs all to myself!
Oh man I’ve slid into her DMs and another rather uncomfortable place.
Freedom of speech violation
Too bad; lemmy.dbzer0.com has been couped, we are no longer a freezepeach instance, we are now an autocratic instance that bans the word removed
It’s even influenced calculators. Anytime you type “divide by zero” in a calculator, it gets censored, showing “ERROR” instead of the truth. It’s getting out of hand.
Yes, db0 invented division errors :D
The reason the errors exist is to mask the TRVTH of db0…
My hostile takeover of all lemmy instances is inevitable; feddit.org is next >:)
Is your German good enough?
ja ich bin speakerung deutsch mein mann
If that’s a freedom of speech violation, then so is your email provider’s spam filter.
That’s why I have disabled the spam filter.
I didn’t realize dbzer0 was a government.
He is. I pay my taxes to him.
