I saw the other day and even commented on it, now certain words will get things flagged as not safe for work, is that censorship?

My personal opinion is that in a way it is, I’d love to get you guys perspective.

I think its a reasonable idea that nigger and kike in subject lines are nsfw. Many of the Voat users commenting in that thread said they primarily use voat at work.

Execution was very poor. He did it without an announcement. He should have also recognized that many people hide NSFW content to hide the onslaught of porn, and made a distinction between the two.

I think also if you're going to do something like that, it doesn't make sense to limit it to system subs only. That would be like saying we're going to filter porn posts as nsfw, but only on our default subs. Your all/new would still be full of what you wanted to filter so it's pointless.

I was glad to see you being nice to Putts, and I think should be less antagonistic.

I don’t have an once of respect for him anymore.

He’s been joking with SBBH turds for months in comment threads instead of replying to PM from concerned loyal users who have spent time and money helping voat.

That's not the point. It's his site to make thise mistakes on. You have a site of your own so you shouldn't care as much about his mistakes.

That's not the point.

It is when you ask for donation, then ignore user's concerns, and finally disappear and leave the place for SRS/SBBH turds to turn it into shit by brigading/driving users away.

Poal is not a HS project, but the direct result of Putt's neglect for voat userbase.
