How does the Modlog actually work?
So, I recently came across a post on lemmy.world (my current instance) where every comment showed up as "removed by mod". I was curious to see what happened, so I opened the Modlog, filtered by "Removing Comments" and cycled through all the mods of that community (not sure if there's a better way), but found absolutely nothing. Am I using it in the wrong way? I can link to the post if the moderators confirm it doesn't count as witch-hunting.
Were any of the banned users(in the modlog) the same people as the ones who had their comments removed?
Only one, which is the one with the most downvoted comments in the thread. I don't see the others banned in the modlog, in fact some of them are still commenting in the community.
