I hate it too, but it is to prevent their post from getting flagged and/or removed. It’s a new form of censorship that came into being from advertisers who don’t want their products associated with certain topics. The advertisers then threaten to stop advertising on the platform which caused the platform to automate cracking down on any topic that isn’t considered advertiser friendly, regardless of how innocent the word’s use is.
Hey, did you know your profile is set to appear as a bot and as a result many may be filtering your posts and comments? You can change this in your Lemmy profile settings.

Thanks, I’m not sure how that happened!
No worries, thank you for acknowledging it. I’ve run into this enough that I think maybe the wording of the setting should be more clear.
