Tbf it’s somewhat difficult. For me on PieFed I don’t think I can even access it at all, while for others who use a variety of apps they may not be familiar with the process inside that app (e.g. I tried Voyager, but I have zero idea to find the modlog in it). Then for the 1/3rd of people on Lemmy World you are running on software that makes people go into the main modlog and initiate a search using features such as a username, plus having to make assumptions that “3 hours ago” started from… well it obviously wasn’t from NOW, and while it is likely from 10 hours ago, that only further pushes back the assumption that you did not edit the post in the meantime (unless like PieFed it shows both the creation as well as the last edit times, and from there you can add the 3 hours to the creation time to get the likely time of its removal). And all of this ignores whether the screenshot that you offered was taken IMMEDIATELY prior to this post, or if there was some huge delay - I’ve seen posts in this very community where the poster mentions that literally several months have gone by between the removal and the post.

Also the post that you linked is now gone, spitting back the generic error message “Error! There was an error on the server. Try refreshing your browser. If that doesn’t work, come back at a later time. If the problem persists, you can seek…” - which we all know to be a lie, bc refreshing will do nothing, nor will returning after any length of time.

However, while all of the above are complicating factors, the fact remains that whatever you are trying to convey is upon you. Neither the screenshot nor the modlog, and now no longer the post as well, say what community name was involved? But if you felt like that fact was relevant, then why not have offered it immediately to people rather than expect them to do all the work to retrieve it? Well, it’s a thought to consider at any rate, to get better traction in the future:-).
