I’m just going through my past history, and looking for anything where the subject is “*Permanently Deleted*” and where the Modlog for that community shows nothing.

None of these appear in the modlog of their respective communities.

I’ve been told before in an earlier comment chain that this might be due to the post user being permanently deleted.

Is there any way I can verify this as an end-user? Once the post is gone, I can’t see the username of who posted it.

It’s just a bit of a small hole in the transparency of Lemmy’s fantastic moderation

    it does not seem that difficult to me to annotate a dead post with a comment about why a user was deleted (I’m assuming there’s a user-deletion log somewhere at the admin instance-level (or even a shared user-ban-list propogated across instances?) this info can be pulled from), but I suppose I can understand how it might be an extra layer of complexity trying to sync such actions.

    Feel free to open an issue on the Lemmy Github: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues

    This post has been quite interesting to be honest
