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!

    Before it would show you a red removed comment, but the comment was still there, I assume that was an admin view.

    I found it very helpful

      That’s what it does now on administrated communities, but it shows them by default. I would like an option to hide them by default even as an admin. I can see them through the mod panel if need be.
