As many prople have reported, after the website was in maintenance mode for a few minutes, project comments continued to be in maintenance mode. This is meant to be the master topic for these issues, there is no need to create more topics.

Answer: The anti-swear is not working/broken. Check this https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/870587/

It is unlikely to be this issue. This topic doesn't seem serious enough to warrant maintenance mode, and the poster didn't say it was a project comment.

Yea, this seems like a specific filter misfire, rather than something that would warrant maintenance
Also, after Scratch went back up, I saw that topic and it was still filtered

Scratch is just broken lately

From WD713:

1: Wait. ST will have it back up soon, and I am sure they are working on a fix as we speak.
2: Use Contact Us (https://scratch.mit.edu/contact-us/). This will alert ST to any new bugs.
3: This one is arguably the most important. Don't panic. ST will fix it, and nothing will be lost. They have backup servers, and likely backup every single thing.

ST will fix everything, in the meantime, continue to Imagine, Program, Share.
