A lot of the removed content appears on instances' mod logs, is that not meeting what you want?

I'm learning new lemmy shit daily still, like this exactly. I've been here for prolly a year-ish now and love how there is still shit to learn.

I had the same feeling when I saw that, it's good to have it available. One caveat is I think the instance admins can mess with the database to hide things, but my understanding is a typical mod cannot.

It's annoying to find something in the mod log. I've looked for my own removed posts (I pissed off a mod without actually breaking any rules, and they temp banned me), and it was a lot more effort than necessary.

What I'd really like is to see all of the removed content, and selectively have content removed by people I trust instead of the actual moderation team.

I do kinda prefer that idea, or rather, I've considered something similar from the perspective of positive ratings. I'd like a way to prioritize content by heavily weighting upvotes from people who I've liked interacting with.
