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.

    If at least one user bookmarks the post through Piefed, then it will not be deleted? Maybe people are likely to use their browser's bookmark system instead. Could another condition such as a new comment, or a new vote, since the post got deleted by OP, be used instead?

    Ah, one problem: the "options" menu does not seem to work on deleted content, which would prevent it from (readily) being able to be bookmarked. (I am talking the options menu on the page itself, with a URL in the form https://piefed.social/post/.)

    Otherwise, it is looking kinda gorgeous! :-)

    Seriously, you are the best! (for offering us hope of even better things to come than this)

    Ah, good catch.

    v1.4.4 is released...

    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!
