Its name dates back at least to the eleventh century and means "farmstead on the stream used as an open sewer".

Name checks out

You've gone too far with the unnecessary self censorship. I have no idea what name you are trying to say.

Don't worry friend, I got you. I looked it up and I reckon he is referring to "Scunthorpe".

Case in point, view this very thread on .ml

I see. I wasn't aware of the Scυnthorpe problem. Thanks for the link.

I see that lemmy uses a slur_regex to replace slurs with *removed*: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/439734dd638a2c06a2f907beab7dcf4646e88f86/crates/utils/src/utils/slurs.rs#L5

I don't know what lemmy.ml's regex is, but I know that cυnts aren't appreciated there, lol.
