What's with all the "removed?" (lemmy.ml)

I frequently see removed in a lot of posts and comments. I'm guessing there's some kind of filter at work? I checked my Voyager settings and I don't see that I've blocked any words, is this happening server side?

From context, it looks like the censored words are pretty common, and not especially potent, curse words. Is this really necessary?

That is not OP is talking about, and it’s not true. Posts & comments only get removed if the ban is done with “Remove Content,” AKA remove_data, which in practice is seldom chosen. https://lemmy.readme.io/reference/post_user-ban
