It was probably cached beforehand.
I remember on the old forum with the alien I could hit refresh constantly to see what deleted comments had said if it was cached on time.
The hardest thing in programming is naming things, off by one errors, and cache invalidation.
The joke is supposed to be "the two hardest problems in programming are naming things, cache invalidation, and off-by-one-errors" - the joke being that you say two problems and are off by one.
Lemmy API returns comment content even if it was removed, but with a removed flag. Boost should not show the content in the copy dialog.
Works with jerboa too.
You can also just view source to show it as well.
Sounds like a Lemmy issue if multiple apps are able to do it, then.
We finally have reveddit/removeddit here.
LemmyEdit?
Wait, but that's the opposite of RemovEddit.
That's not a bug, that's a feature
I can't seem to do it
This opens up the world of sending hidden messages by quickly deleting the message after sending it, which opens up the world of "deleted malware" and possible rule breaks.
What about edits?
What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.
