@love This can be turned off (caveat: only by the uploader) in Youtube Studio.
Go to: Youtube Studio, Settings, Under "Content" turn "Censor auto-captions" off.
This should be up to the viewer, to be clear, and not the uploader (who may not even be aware that this option exists, because Youtube is great at hiding/removing features that actually benefit people...)
Edit: on desktop, go to Settings, Channel, Advanced Settings, Automatic Captions (Don't show potentially inappropriate words)

@silverface @love I wonder if flipping this on hits the creators revenue; I know Mandalore went out of his way to uncensor his videos CCs, but hasn't done so in his more recent work. Could also just be some YouTube fuckery though, as you mentioned.

@SomeoneInParticular @silverface @love I think it must be a real issue. I recently saw a quite brilliant video by a historian about the Voynich manuscript, and the type of nudity censoring that, according to the historian, was mandated by YouTube hurt my brains.
It's a really funny video, by the way, if you want to see for yourself what I mean: https://youtu.be/51mm_u32mys

@silverface @love For me it looks different

YT Studio > Settings > Channel > Automatic Captions / “Don’t show potentially inappropriate words”

@silverface @love There is no Content under settings. At least not in my studio.
Closest I was able to find was Settings > Channel > Advanced Settings > Scroll down to Automatic captions and there's an option for "Don't show potentially inappropriate words". I don't know if this is the right setting, but it sounds like it.

@silverface @love As someone who is about to upload a youtube video with lots of swearing in it, this is very useful thanks!

@silverface @love I hope someone comes up with a project similar to SponsorBlock or ReturnYouTubeDislike that replaces community captions. Community Captions was the best feature that got removed for absolutely no reason.
