I don't understand how to use this crappy filtering method for clients?
local message = "Go away"
local message = game:GetService("TextService"):FilterStringAsync(msg,plr.UserId)
print(message)
----------------------------
--My old method 1000000b+ times better than this
local message = "Go away"
local message = game:GetService("Chat"):FilterStringForBroadcast(msg,plr)
print(message)
Don't know how to use it also i don't understand why they want to make extra things for localscripts when they already have it

`:FilterStringForBroadcast()` is supposed to be used when anybody can see it. This makes sure the message is appropriate for ALL players. `:FilterStringAsync()` is supposed to be used when only one player will see it, that's why you need an extra parameter of the player who recieves it. This will make sure it's filtered based on the player's security/age settings. cowsoncows 951 — 6y

This should work, it seems you forgot to GetChatForUserAsync(userId). Weird, but necessary step.
LocalScript
local messageToFilter = "yourself"
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local textService = game:GetService("TextService")
function filterMessage(message)
local filteredItem = textService:FilterStringAsync(message, player.userId)
return filteredItem:GetChatForUserAsync(player.userId) -- The thing you missed
end
print(filterMessage(messageToFilter))
