I went to reply to a thread on this post and it is completely gone? Is this an error with federation or some thing? I haven't seen this happen before.

Unlike Reddit, when a user or mod deletes a post on Lemmy, its entire thread becomes completely inaccessible.

    Such a novel concept these days. When you delete something it actually gets deleted.

    Wasn't the philosophy completely the opposite in the fediverse since when something gets deleted, it just politely asks other federated servers to delete their copies of that content too and they could just... not do it?

    That usually means it was deleted, either by the user or an admin.
    Afaik, there isn't any way to be sure.

    Ah, that's too bad. There was a lot of great discussion going on.

    On a positive note, a Dev responded to that post indicating that the behaviour of the platform is being reviewed.

    I was thinking the same thing, I'm pissed too because I was planning on coming back and downloading some of the TUI packages that had been mentioned, but when I went to reference the post it was gone. Guess I'll go fuck myself lol.

    Hopefully it was deleted and the OP redirected to one of the gazillion linux communities.

    Late to the party, but to answer the question asked by the thread, we're probably obsessively checking for new updates to install.
