As per title, submitted a post here that as far as I’m aware met all the rules, it had positive momentum before I went to bed, wake up and no post and no messages or notification that it was removed or why except that it’s just gone. Discuss.

    That’s perfectly fine. I’m just trying to identify that there is a problem because as a new user to a new platform none of that is made apparent, lack of communication and information about this has just made me less likely to even try and enagage due to a lack of clarity on how the rules are enforced.

    Without some notification, as a new user I don’t even know for sure that it’s mod action and wouldn’t have without making this post.

      this is a teething issue with lemmy as a platform. It would certainly help to have a place where notifications go when posts are removed or banned. Currently that place is the modlog which is viewable by everyone

        I’m aware of this now, but mod log is not something new users are made aware of, nor is it accessible through the apps, at least not Jerboa. There’s a significant number of new users who will never touch the web interface.

      new user to a new platform

      Yeah. We’re all just starting here. These fedi apps are barely holding together. Techs been around for a bit but never this many users. We have a lot of work to do. Everyone from the devs to the hosters and the mods. Honestly maybe it is best to just walk away if you’re getting this upset.
