    Hey, you’re trying to censor with asterisks but Lemmy interprets those as formatting instructions. If you want the asterisks to show up, you need to put a backslash in front of them like so:

    Cheap ones are s\**t, worn out ones are also s\**t.

      And we’re all adult enough to handle reading the words.

      It’s such a strange idea to use bad words but okay it by censoring letters out. Either use the word or don’t.
