      I don’t even know who this shit is for. I see the censored memes far more on lemmy than I do any other social media platform. Is this all coming from facebook? Because they themselves are often screenshots of content from tumblr or twitter

        TikTok is notoriously very strict with censorship, and that leaked into Instagram and Facebook even though they are a bit more lenient.

          Facebook and Instagram don’t care, it’s only TikTok and YouTube. You can literally say/type the n-word on Instagram

        People internalizing the censorship and starting to self-censor is one of the worst effects of social media.

        That’s the thing, the censorship doesn’t even remove anything of substance. It’s just speech policing for the policing.

          Probably got used to this sort of thing over on Meta. I was getting warnings I’d be banned for ludicrous reasons, started censoring myself. And then I quit.
