If you downloaded a book and the language is silly to the point of questioning, some puritan is going in and uploading shoddily censored versions of various books.

Currently reading Alchemised by SenLinYu - physical copy + a downloaded copy to be more accessible. Lots of instances of ‘idiot off’ in place of ‘fuck off’. The one that got me was the BBEG calling our protagonist ‘a stupid jerk’. Felt so silly when the author is very clearly trying to lean into the dark in dark fantasy aspect that I had to check my physical copy and was surprised to find they changed it from ‘you stupid bitch’ which is much more thematically appropriate lmao.

I saw another post from 3 months back where this happened with another book.
