    This kind of seems like an easy problem to fix with a mod if someone wants it sufficiently to make one.

      I mean, “spaz” as an insult is generally regarded as offensive to people with disabilities that cause muscle spasms. Even if it’s “spasm”, I can see where the offensiveness angle makes sense.

        Spaz is short for spastic. A derogatory term for the mentally disabled.

      Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

      This is what it is btw

      Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

      It’s certainly offensive to my ears. Not vulgar or anything, just plain annoying.
