Yesterday I was reading the post about the FUTO keyboard where there were a lot of messages deleted by moderators.
I’ve commented there

What the heck happened with all the messages deleted by moderator?

And it got deleted. Right now you can only see 4, but I’ve counted 19 messages moderated and the post has been locked. Why?
I’ve had a look ad the modlog and the messages don’t seems to violate any policy (now they’ve removed them in the modlog too).

I’m pinging here lemmy.ml admin and the mods of the open source community where the post was posted so they can have their say about it and clarify the situation to me.

If I’m getting something wrong, please let me know, I’m here to discus and understand if I’m getting something wrong or if something went wrong in the moderation. Thanks!

Down here you can see the deleted comments.

P.s. I’m writing here because I think that this post on lemmy.ml wouldn’t last long.

    saying it is OS is bad faith behavior.

    As far as I can tell, no one in the second comments thread who was deleted was doing this. They were talking positively about FUTO in ways that still acknowledged that it wasn’t open source.

    I’ve reached the limit of my caring about this issue, but you can search the modlog for particular users whose comments in the second thread were deleted, if you want to check what they were saying about it.

      my comment was removed just for saying FUTO has strong voice to text and that’s why people like it.
