It's very common on most social media for comments with swears to get shadow removed. Personally I often resort to non-ASCII lookalike characters instead, because fսсk those sһіttу censorship rules. But it's also a lot easier to just self-censor.

Interesting, got a link?

I regularly use this page.

Unfortunately it looks like the font lemmy-ui uses really fucked up the 'h' lookalike:

on my phone when I wrote that comment last night I thought I could just about see the difference between the lookalike 'u' and a real 'u' because it wasn't the same height as the (real) 'c' next to it. But I may have been imagining that.
