This shit drives me up the wall even more than “unalive”
You can’t stop people saying slurs but an entire generation will subconsciously alter their entire vocabulary because they grew up on corporate platforms with very heavily moderated text chats and comment sections and they ended up internalising the filters 
Edit: I was not aware of the AAVE origins of “ahh” which pushes it more towards the territory of legit slang. Still, I stand by my general point about automated moderation influencing language being bad
Isn’t the intent to be less friendly to advertisers? A brand doesn’t want to be associated with suicide. So people say “unalive themself” instead, which carries the same meaning as “suicide”, thus making a mockery of the attempt at censorship
And this is achieved by implementing lazy automated word filters because actual content moderation would be too much work. The end result is that people internalise the presence of these filters and continue to speak like they’re present even when they’re not on TikTok, etc. It’s just incredibly fucking bleak
