Gotcha!

(it really would be nice to see a more graceful handling of these)
Hit me hard last night.
Spent an hour formulating my response, websearching, querying back and forth with an LLM, doing maths in ghci, only to find the 4 hour old post deleted before I got to send my response.
Mildly ironic, that the post was about intelligence.

Internal Server Error
Doh!

Ok.
I've made it so that deleted posts are still viewable, including their comments. The post author and body will NOT be visible. Deleted posts will not show up in communities, search results, etc just as before - you need the URL of the post to get to it. Bookmark a deleted post within 7 days or it will be deleted for real.
Ask your instance admin to upgrade to v1.4.3. Chances are they'll be on 1.4.x already so this will be easy for them.
Could this be open to "abuse" though?

Or lack thereof, perhaps? ðĪŠ

Definitely. But... so can pretty much anything else?

Hrm, well now I am able to ask for the Bookmark to be made, but I do not actually see the content in the list of Bookmarked items. Which isn't so much a "problem" as I have the link elsewhere, but is definitely weird, so I thought I'd let you know!
Ok i'll fix that. We're getting there!

That's where old school forums still shine, the ability for mods to just move an entire thread to a more fitting subforum is so nice. That's not even possible on R*dd*t.

By the way I'm pretty sure Reddit is going to change how it handles deleted threads at some point.
It will more resemble the Fediverse in that a removal (mods or users) glasses it entirely.
Honestly that will doom reddit out of its little usefulness that's left.
I still keep finding solutions that still works from 10 years ago from a thread on reddit.
So that said I don't like glassing whole posts here on fediverse. For example, I kept a few bookmarks on some new music artists I wanted to check out but post deleted so everything goes lol

Yes I think we're going to need to refine the retention logic a bit, eventually. Thanks for these ideas.
Thank you for the FOSS development!

Damn, I feel you. I once wrote a response to a writing prompt only to return and find the post deleted.
