Hi!

Sometimes, a comment is deleted by a mod, and I’d like to see what it said without having to dig it manually.

For multiple reasons:

  • To keep mods accountable: We have seen mods abusing their power on some communities.
  • To understand context when reading replies of deleted comments.

Now, of course they shouldn’t simply show in the UI, it should show as deleted, but I could see an option to retrieve it from the “three dots” menu.

Thanks for the app!

    I just wish the mod log showed who removed the comments.

      That can lead to harassment, which we’re already having some issues with. But it’s reasonable.

        but it keeps mods accountable for their actions. iirc it’s a toggle that’s on by default, I don’t think it should be removed entirely but I think it should be off by default

        For instance, a community made to harass one specific mod.

        This was yesterday afternoon.
