Iv seen posts with people substituting rape with r@pe. Other than bypassing filters I can’t see a reason to censor just 1 letter that doesn’t actually censor the word? I see if you fully censor the word, but even still context completely ruins the censorship.

    I saw a post somewhere saying that changing 1 letter can prevent it from being searched for by people who just want to troll posts with that particular word
