For anyone who doesn’t know where the modlog is, if you’re on PC you can click the green “Modlog” button on the right sidebar, which can be found alongside other community stats like users / day. Warning: Do this at your own risk.
Out of curiosity, what is the line for content that would be censored from there? Being able to go and see the post and poster, in some cases, won’t be enough for moderation.
I don’t think there’s a line. While you can still see the deleted content in text format there, an user must do so at their own discretion. It’s not the mod team’s responsibility at that point, as long as there’s proper reasons provided for the deletion of said content.
What about a link to CP? Or other illegal or abusive content? Or instructions on how to access content like that, or engage in human trafficking, or plans to commit a terrorist attack?
I think there are some lines that need to be considered both to protect the instance and admins and for the general good.
i mean, plans for terrorist attacks should rather be documentend and reported to the police, and people being informed about those is not really bad, but CP? Yeah, idk, that should be possible to be properly deleted from the site, yeah.

Can mods act upon this comment here?
Done.
🏆 here’s my Lemmy Gold for you!
I feel honored. Thanks for the gold kind stranger!
May be worth flagging that user to the lemmyworld instance admins, they show up in the modlog quite a bit
I did that. And it looks like they took care of it.
What was it?
To prevent possibly upsetting even more people, I’d recommend reading the deleted comment from our modlog instead. :)

Using the Jerboa app you can apparently use the “View Source” option on the comment to view it as well. Just figured that out myself out of curiosity.
It’s also possible to read it in the Liftoff app by accessing the so-called “Nerd stuff” of the comment
