How are you supposed to link to a source when it's completely deleted?

You can see it in my profile though:

@MaximilianKohler to Ask Lemmy Ex Redditors of Lemmy what made you come on over? What happened at Reddit that you made the switch? • 5 days ago

This is the link and it looks like it's been restored https://lemmy.world/post/17593614

I looked in the mod log https://lemmy.world/modlog/3106 and it says:

4 hours ago mod Restored Post Ex Redditors of Lemmy what made you come on over? What happened at Reddit that you made the switch? reason: restoring post as it was deleted as a result of the user getting instance banned from lemmy.ml

There is no log of why/when it was removed.

I looked up another one from https://lemmy.world/c/nostupidquestions titled "Where's all the intelligent discussion at?", which was removed for rule 7. I don't agree with the removal reason, but none of this is relevant to the point of the OP. You guys are sidetracking.

That's a lot of effort you're putting into something that can easily disappear at any point.

That is the point of this thread. You've chosen to deceptively magnify one part of it to twist things for your own purpose, which also seems to be a primary purpose of a lot of people on Lemmy -- antagonizing other Lemmy users.

Why would you want a lemmy.ml link though?

That's where the thread is. It was created on lemmy.ml and crossposted to lemmy.world. When crossposting from lemmy.ml to lemmy.world it says "crossposted from lemmy.world", which is wrong and confusing, and defeats the purpose of crossposting (informing people about similar communities or other instances).

“My posts keep getting deleted!”

— user looks into public info to find out why your posts might be being deleted —

Nice try, but that's deceptive. This thread was not about my personal posts. I even gave an example of a recent thread (that I did not make) with hundreds of comments. You're further proving my point.

It sounds like you're saying it's impossible, but I'm doubtful of that. Currently there is no fediverse link for the thread, so I think one could be added that links to the lemmy.ml post. I crossposted from lemmy.ml and the crosspost should say so.

If the devs conclude it's not possible or wanted, that's fine. But this is my feedback.

It's exceedingly bizarre how many people on Lemmy rush to defend Reddit and attack other Lemmy users for anything possible.

This thread had absolutely nothing to do with that, yet you somehow dug through months of mod logs to find the one thread that would allow to you attack me.

"You have a history of being inflammatory towards Reddit on Lemmy! This is not acceptable behavior on Lemmy!"

I posted this thread to Fediverse@lemmy.ml, so I think there should be a fediverse link to the thread on Fediverse@lemmy.ml.

1. Yes, posts, not comments.
2. I didn't specify because I'm not sure how/if it works differently. But I think they were deleted by mods.

I've never seen "nazi shit" on Lemmy. The threads that have been deleted have all seemed on-topic with normal discussions taking place. The last one was a "what made you leave reddit?" thread with hundreds of comments.

The “fediverse link” on a post

I'm only seeing those links on comments, not the thread. Has it always been like that?

"The instance of the person who posted it" seems to be reasonable for comments, but not the thread.

That’s how it’s always worked??? The fediverse button goes to the canonical source

Maybe it didn't exist on posts but only comments? I see it on your comment but not the OP/thread.

Here’s where we never see the cure, due to profits.

Actually, in this case it's due to laziness and ignorance of the populace:

There may be an existing solution to the chronic disease crisis, but a disabled patient seems to be the only person motivated enough to try to obtain it. And they've been failing going at it alone.
