Comment on Is shadow banning submissions/comments/users a thing on Lemmy?

Moderation actions are logged in the modlog, but they aren’t sent as notifications to users.
If you find some of your comments disappearing, check your username in the modlogs.
I think this is supposed to reduce the amount of grief that admins/moderators deal with when performing mod actions.
Where can modlogs be found?
Personally I dislike shadow banning/hiding/deleting, but I’m never intentionally an ass hole - even though I’m sure there are occasional moments where it comes across that way. I wonder how many people are motivated enough to create new accounts to circumvent bans/content deletion.
There is a link in the bottom of the sidebar for each community.
Thanks.
Turns out in this specific occasion that it wasn’t removed/hidden; so it must be a bug with Sync for Lemmy.
Some mod actions can be shockingly moronic, so I can also understand why some people get annoyed. I suppose some people must get next level angry to harass mods though.
There’s also a link in your profile so you can see all the moderation actions taken against you anywhere.
Managing mod mail on reddit sucked so bad

And the mods usually leave a comment so you know why your post/comment was removed or your account banned. It’s a nice system.

Usually, but not always. Depends on the mod and their mood, of course.
