    This is a false equivalency. I’ll try to spell it out clearly.

    I’m looking for a character format (a type of alternative text characters) that doesn’t get removed.

    It’s not necessary to know what content is being removed in order to suggest a character format that doesn’t get removed.

    So I don’t know why you’re so focused on trying to determine what the content is when it actually is irrelevant to the question I’m asking.

      I’m pretty sure people are focused on what the content is because they have reservations about helping someone bypass filters to post stuff that may be offensive enough to be deleted in the first place.

        Nothing I’m saying is offensive, and trust me, a lot of completely unoffensive and harmless comments are blocked, while very offensive content is allowed. It often makes no sense either, and I think the bots are literally broken. A quick Google search about this issue shows some people wanting to post admittedly offensive things, but other people who were trying to make completely innocuous comments and still having them get removed. And it’s really varied and inconsistent what gets deleted. I’m in the latter camp.

        Well thank you for understanding what no one else seems to get, at least. I thought I was going insane.

        You don’t physically need to know what the content is, in order to suggest a text character that doesn’t get removed.

        People might have a reason why they don’t want to provide a text character that doesn’t get removed.

        But since I’ve stated that the content is unproblematic in any way, there should be no problem with providing one.

        Hopefully someone is willing and able to help.
