While others have said it's an Australian thing, to give an example a popular Sydney based pub-brewery down the street from me has the rule "No Dicks!" on their wall and it really works. Always a friendly place to be, the people genuine and a sense of community.
Swearing, when used properly, punctuates an otherwise boring corporate message.

Some workplaces really are trying to be the chill pub all the way down to the beer on tap.
But you can have an environment that's "a friendly place to be where people are genuine and there's a sense of community" without that crap
I swear more than the next person but I don't want my workplace codifying it. We can leave that kind of tech-bro bs back in the 2010s.

Yes, and you can also have the environment with "that crap".
Why is one approach superior to the other, beyond the fact that it appeals to you?
